Produktbeschreibungen
From School Library Journal
Grade 4-10-Although Lou Gehrig was overshadowed during his career by Babe Ruth and Joe DiMaggio, history has recognized the great impact he had on the sport of baseball. His statistics still remain on the top of the ten-best lists and his rise from the poverty of his German immigrant family is legendary. Tragically, his name is also associated with the disease that ended his baseball career and took his life at the age of 37. Carol Birch has detailed Gehrig's life and career in this no-frills recording that marks the 100 year anniversary of his birth. While the topic would be of interest to middle and high school students, the overly enthusiastic reading and exaggeration of words may distract older listeners. Classes studying this time period as well as young baseball aficionados may find this recording of interest.

A well-told tale
4. April 2006
Having grown up in the New York metropolitan area as a baseball fan, I was well acquainted with the story of Lou Gehrig. At least I thought I was until I listened to Carol Birch's spirited retelling of his life. I knew of his statistics and his tragic demise, but Carol brought this American hero to life. Too many baseball fans are unaware of those who so gracefully pioneered the game. However, Carol's story will be enjoyed not only by baseball aficionados but also by anyone who enjoys a good story - which covers everyone.

Lou Gehrig: The Story of a Great Man
10. Juni 2003
This is an excellent CD. It highlights the life of a man who started with humble beginnings and rose to true greatness. Carol Birch reveals not only the highlights that made Lou Gehrig a superb ball player, but she also paints a portrait of a man who understood humility and viewed his achievements as a gift he received.
It is a fascinating dialog that reminds us that a true hero is one who gives of himself asking nothing in return and faces difficulty with courage. Quite a contrast to the shooting stars of today that receive so much undeserving praise. This CD was enjoyed by everyone in my family.
