Go CUBS Go!

George Castle, Marv Levy

Description

Meet Grandpa Bruno, the bear. All his life he has been a loyal fan of his beloved Chicago Cubs. And though they have disappointed him many times, he has never given up on them. He has even convinced his four little grandchildren to cheer for those Cubbies. They are all doing that now, and are they especially excited, because the Cubs, who haven't won a World Series since 1908, are playing in the World Series now for the first time in 71 years. Whoever wins this 7th game of the 2016 World Series, the Cubs OR the Cleveland Indians, will be THE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS. If the Cubs win, what a celebration there will be in the City of Chicago. GO CUBS GO! AND THERE IS MORE! Chicago's baseball historian George Castle has contributed two special historical and educational sections that follow the story, A Chicago Cubs historical timeline and a Cubs Words, Terms, and Quotes section. Cubs fans young and old will learn more about the history of their favorite team... The Chicago Cubs!
