Anotace knihy

Abner is one hundred and nineteen years old. He is desperately trying to make his one hundred and twentieth birthday so he can see his beloved Cubs win the World Series. It is the year 2020, and Abner is the only living person to remember the last time the Cubs won the World Series. Matt and Jason are two pre-freshmen who have taken on a summer assignment: interview an older man. They dejectedly move toward the senior home and their first meeting with Abner. Before the summer is over, they will be cheering with Abner for the re-born Cubs. Whether you're a Cubs fan or not, you'll enjoy this story: Abner's Story Early Reviewers say: " ...a firmly grounded tale of loyalty and friendship that anyone - sports fan or not - can relate to. It just might turn you into a baseball fan if you are not there already." -Erin Brooks, Editor and Asst. Director of Community Engagement "...packed with significant and accurate statistics that enrich the characters and enhance the storyline. A true joy to read - an intriguing page-tuner." -Emil Misichko, fellow Cub fan "...Told with care, humor, and a staggering number of historical facts about the Chicago Cubs, this book is one that is at once a pleasure to read...surely a novel that will find its way into the hearts of faithful Cubs fans and the sane alike." -Stephen Becker About the Author: MICHAEL J.
