This is the full audio version of The Summer with the Blues written by Ed FitzGerald. 

In the summer of 1950 some extraordinary events transpired in the life of an ordinary 14-year old boy. Through a series of totally unexpected occurrences the protagonist played catch with future Hall of Fame baseball players and former famous All American athletes while working for the Kansas City Blues Baseball Club. With humor and poignancy the life of a Catholic boy living in the 1950s is recalled by the 85 year old author.

This read aloud is for the book The Summer with the Blues by Ed FitzGerald. Mr. Fitzgerald is the father-in-law of one of the teachers on my campus, and she shared his book with me.
