Books Descriptions
Now available for the first time in paperback, Wilfred
Santiago?s instant classic 21: The Story of Roberto Clemente is
a human drama of courage, faith, and dignity, inspired by the
life of the acclaimed Pittsburgh Pirates baseball star who died
too young. 21 chronicles Clemente?s life from his early days
growing up, through the highlights of his career, capturing the
grit of his rise from an impoverished Puerto Rican childhood to
the majesty of his performance on the field, and to his
fundamental decency off of it. Santiago?s inviting style
combines realistic attention to detail and expressive
cartooning to great effect.
