Review:
" BECOMING JOE DIMAGGIO is wondrous in its heartfelt, sparse, home-run, free verse tribute to both a family's love of baseball and one of the game's greatest players, " Joltin' Joe." Readers will long remember Testa's words long after the book has been read, long after games have been played." -- award-winning poet and anthologist Lee Bennett Hopkins
