Who Is Derek Jeter? (Who Was...?) Read Free Books and Download eBooks
When Derek Jeter was eight years old, he announced that he was going to play baseball for the New York Yankees. Jeter earned the attention of major league scouts in high school and was drafted to the New York Yankees in 1992. Named Rookie of the Year, he helped the Yankees win the World Series five times, and became team captain in 2003. With his good looks, easygoing personality, and sense of humor, Derek has always been a fan favorite. Retiring from baseball in 2014, Derek Jeter leaves behind a legacy.

Easy to read book! My son is big into the Yankees and hes only 10 years old so these types of books are a very great read for kids who were not around much in the height of his career. Its so important these younger kids know about true legends!
I bought this book as a gift for my nephew, who is a huge fan of the Yankees. It's a great way to enhance his reading skills while learning about one of our favorite players, and we have enjoyed reading the book together.
I don't love baseball but now I am starting to like it more and more everyday so I do recommend this book
