We Are The Ship: The Story of Negro League Baseball

Nelson, K. (2008). We are the ship: the story of negro league baseball. New York, NY: Hyperion Books for Children.
  
   This book offers great and interesting facts of the Negro Baseball League. It talks about many of the challenges they endured, obstacles they overcame, and their success in playing the game of baseball.  The author/illustrator Kadir Nelson does an amazing job in his paintings of players.  They help in adding a visual to the information in this book.  Great book!
