GEN: Mickey Mantle Book

[YaphaN@AOL.COM]

Hi!

I had a parent bring in a book she really wanted to donate to the library.
This is _My favorite summer 1956_ by Mickey Mantle and Phil Pepe. By flipping
through the book, I'm not so sure that it's appropriate for a K-6 library.
Has any body read the book? What do you think? I know the 5th and 6th graders
have the reading ability to read it, I'm more worried about the
appropriateness of the content.

Could someone recommend a book about Mickey Mantle that might be better
suited for this age, if this one is not?

Thanks,
Yapha
