This book would have benefited from some editing. With an author co-writing with Mo'ne, I think there were times that the publisher wanted it to sound more authentic, as if a young teen was writing. However, I somehow doubt that an honor roll student attending a $30K+ plus school actually would write things like, "me and my teammates" and lots of "gonna"s. And, do you really think someone would remember intricate details of conversations from when they were just 7?

Mo'ne does seem very genuine and humble. I appreciated her comments when a college athlete tweeted something totally inappropriate about her, and Mo'ne urged forgiveness. She comes across as being in awe of the many people she has met, rather than name-dropping. I know that many of our students will enjoy this, although they might skip over some of the game details.

I read the book "Mo'ne Davis: Remember my Name" by Mo'ne Davis. This book was an autobiography about Mo'ne Davis. The book I read was about Mo'ne Davis and how she started out with the boys. When she was a little girl she played three sports baseball, basketball, and soccer and she played all those sports with the boys.

Mo'ne Davis: Remember my Name, was one of the best books I've ever read. I really liked the book! I liked it because it was about sports and I love sports no matter what sport it is. I also liked it because it was an interesting book as well. It was a very good book and you should read it too.

I think many people would like this book. Anyone one would like this book especially people who like sports. In the book they only really talk about three sports in the book baseball, basketball, and soccer. But some other people might just like it because it's an interesting book to read. This book was one of my favorites.

Mo'ne Davis begins her story from the first time she plays baseball as a seven-year-old, to her rise to fame as the first girl pitcher winning a game in the Little League World Series. This is a story that will fascinate young baseball, basketball, and soccer players. Mo'ne still plays all three sports very competitively. Through hard work, natural talent and a dedicated gifted coach who believes in giving inner city kids the opportunity to shine, readers will realize that this coach was integral to her success. They will also learn a lot about the history of baseball and famous African Americans who inspire Mo'ne. Although the biography does ramble from one subject to another too quickly, Mo'ne's upbeat brave spirit comes through convincingly as a young person telling her inspirational story to kids her own age. How refreshing!

Mo`ne Davis is the first girl to throw a shutout in the Little League Baseball World Series and the youngest athlete to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine. I know, baseball with a girl. This girl is not any ordinary girl, she is one of the best girls to play baseball. Mo`ne is is only the fourth American girl and the eighteenth girl from anywhere in the entire world to ever get to participate. I like this book because not only does it talk about baseball, but it shows how girls can play the same sports as boys. i can relate to this book because i play baseball.

I will definitely be adding this to my middle school library collection. Mo'ne is an inspiration to young athletes, and not just girls. She is very knowledgable about the technical aspects of her sports (she's not just a baseball star, but also talented at basketball and soccer) and her narrative can really pull you into the tension of a hot game. I love that this was not over-edited and it reads in the authentic voice of a 13-year old. In fact, it's pretty decent writing from an 8th grader!

I think that Mo'ne Davis is very smart and athletic. She plays for the Monarchs a youth team in Philly. Her mom didn't want her to play sports with a bunch of guys, until she saw Davis play basketball for the monarchs. She plays baseball, soccer, basketball, and indoor soccer. I think that Mo'ne Davis will become a great athlete if she keeps up the hard work and stays in school.

[Farrell · Rating 1 out of 5]

Abandoned. I already kinda know her story, and it was a little childish- written by a child, I know, but reading what I already know is boring. She is inspiring, and I'm sure this book is great and inspires lots of little kids.

Mone Davis, a nonfiction autobiography is a book about a girl who defeated the odds. She was looked at like a girl who couldn't compete with the boys. Mone Davis a young athlete who joined the Anderson Monarchs (a boys team) made relationships with her team, Mone also dialed down the plays that she was learned, Coach Steve realized she was special. Mone was a fast learner, and a fast developer. Mone’s mom did not encourage and did no like Mone playing competitive sports as a girl. Mone’s mom was really supportive and always attended Mone’s games. Months later Mone picked up the sport baseball. She instantly knew she wanted to play this, she knew she was meant for this sport. Later on Mone become one of the best young pitchers in the world making it to the little league world series. Mone inspired many people, She showed that women can play with men. Overall this book was great, it grabbed my attention and kept wanting me to read more and more. Every chapter was unique and interesting, with something new and amazing. On a scale of one to five, five being amazing, I would rate it a five out of five. The book was great in all ways it had a interesting setting and plot, I also loved how Mone herself published a book about herself, talking about the pros and cons about her spectacular journey. I would recommend this book to people that love sports, and to people that have a average reading level.

When I read this story, It was very interesting reading about a girl playing sports. If i go to one of the pages, it says that Mo'ne was one of the first baseball players.

[Joy Kirr · Rating 4 out of 5]

I skimmed a lot of this book - the explanation of the different pitches, the run-through of the games… I think this book is better suited for 6th or 5th graders. It’s simplistic and had a ton of life lessons in it.

[Phoenix (Books with Wings) · Rating 5 out of 5]

I own this book, and have owned it since probably 2015 or so.
I only just read it a few days ago.
This book chronicles some of the life of Mo'ne Davis, the 18th girl to participate in the Little League World Series and the first girl to ever get a win and pitch a shutout during it. It follows her starting from when she first got into baseball, basketball and soccer, and through her experience at the Little League World Series and everything that happened afterwards. I decided to read this after learning about Ella Bruning, the 20st girl ever to play in the LLWS who played this year. Bruning has totally taken the baseball world by storm, there was even an article on MLB.com about her and major leaguers have praised her. She is a catcher, which is almost certainly the hardest position in the game, and she's great at it. For the first pitch of the LLWS this year, Mo'ne Davis threw it out to Bruning.

I wish I'd read this book earlier, but I'm also glad that I didn't. I'm a huge baseball fan, but I only really got into baseball a few years ago, and I don't know if before that I would have enjoyed reading this as much. But wow, this book is amazing. It is always so fun for me to read about girls and women in baseball, because basically all girls are told to play softball - it's hard for girls to continue to play baseball. There's basically no all-girls leagues and coaches on boys teams will often tell the girls or their parents that she should play softball instead. Look, no shade against softball. I play softball. I love the sport of softball. But I wish that there was so much less of all this, of baseball being a 'boys sport' and softball being a 'girls sport'. While the two sports are similar, there are definitely differences and it's unfair to not let a girl play in baseball just because of her gender. I played baseball for one year, way back in second grade, and then I switched to softball. I honestly don't know why I did, I don't know if my dad just decided to do it for me, or I'd caught the memo that girls were 'supposed' to play softball, or what, but there are definitely times when I wish I played baseball instead of softball. A lot of times. Like I said, I love softball, but baseball is just different. I want more girls to be able to play that.

Most of this review was more talking about myself and girls in baseball in general, than this actual book, but honestly I think that's what this book shows. Girls can play baseball. Girls are good at baseball, too! Mo'ne Davis's story is amazing and inspiring and I'm so glad to read it!

I think that this book was pretty good, it talked about how Mo'ne Davis went from a little girl playing baseball with her friend and her friend's coach asked her to join his baseball team and that's when Mo'ne Davis career started. She played with boys and against boys. She broke many barriers and put more power into phrases like "you throw like a girl". She had many obstacles in her life including in the game of baseball but also in life as well. She has become the fourth American girl and the eighteen girls from around the world to make it to the Little League World Series. This book shows Mo'ne love for not only baseball but for basketball, soccer, and football. This book talks about her how hard she worked to get to the Little League World Series. One excerpt from the book found on page 18-19 states," The OPPOSING PLAYER RAN INTO ME HARD< AND I FELL ON THE court and landed right on my knee. I grabbed it and started crying ." (pg18) " You can't just run onto the court every time she gets hurt," another man shouted in a loud voice." This shows just at 7 years old how people already started to give her and her mom a difficult time. This was one example of what she went through at 7 years old. I think that this writing is really powerful because it shows how girls can be as good as guys. Some strengths in this book are how the author and Mo'ne connected to write this book. The weakness in this book is how the story might sound a little childish based on how they wrote the story. I would recommend this book to people who like all the sports because it shows the hard work and dedication that Mo'ne showed to get to this point. If this book was part of a series I would not read it because it would be really repetitive.

[Lacey · Rating 4 out of 5]

I’d recommend this book to all sports-lovers out there, especially girls.

This book is pretty great, not going to lie. The backstory behind Mo’ne really goes to show that you don’t need to be born into some super rich family to achieve your goals, and that city kids are just as capable as suburban and country kids. This book also demonstrates that girls can be just as good as boys at any sport if they work hard enough. It’s very inspiring as well.

The only nitpick I have with this book is that it feels a little rushed after it talks about the Little League World Series. It kind of jumps from topic to topic on the amazing things Mo’ne did after her claim to fame. And while pacing is important, I feel as if talking about the events following your success are important as well. If it had shed just a little more light on her life after the LLWS, I feel as if this book would’ve been a little better.

Other than that, this book is a short and sweet read and I would definitely recommend it!

[Dale Brown · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mo'ne Davis was the fourth American girl to make it to the Little League World Series and was the first female pitcher to win a game. She was on the cover of Sports Illustrated. The story was excellent- it showed a combination of hard work on her part, teamwork and friendship, great coaching, and opportunities that made her feat possible. The writing was that of a child and I wish she had a developmental editor or a ghost writer who interviewed her and wrote the book. Because the story was excellent, but the writing- which was absolutely excellent when you consider the age she wrote it- didn't draw you in as much as it could have. And her story is one that is inspirational and worth learning from.

Mo'ne Davis "Remember My Name" was a terrific book filled with baseball adventures and stories of an talented young girl. The book talks about Mo'ne Davis, Little League World Series phenom adventures throughout her life. In the beginning of the book, Mo'ne and helper author Hilary Beard talk about Mo'ne as a small child. Mo'ne actually did not like baseball until she was about 10 years old. As a seven year old, Mo'ne loved to be outdoors playing sports. One day, Mo'ne was throwing a football around with her older brother Quaran near a field of young boys playing basbeall. The coach of the team of boys walked up to Mo'ne and complimented her of her arm. He said that for a seven year old, throwing a football 20 yards is pretty impressive. Then Mo'ne talked about how her favorite sport was basketball. Quaran added in that Mo'ne was very talented. Later on, the coach invited Mo'ne to join the boys in their basketball season that would start in a few weeks. Mo'ne was filled with excitement after hearing about that. After Mo'ne and Quaran got home, they told their mother about the invitation. The coach had given Mo'ne his phone number so that Miss Davis could reach him if Mo'ne decided to play. At first, Miss Davis was not to excited about the basketball thing. However .Mo'ne convinced her mother to take her to the first practice. When Mo'ne got to practice, all the other boys were already warming up. The coach named Coach Steve introduced Mo'ne to the rest of the boys. The boys were very nice and welcoming to Mo'ne especially Steve Bandura who instantly became great friends with Mo'ne. After basketball, Coach Steve also wanted Mo'ne to join the baseball and soccer team. Mo'ne was very excited about the oppurtunities. AS Mo'ne grew up, she was really good at basketball which was her favorite sport. Her baseball team became very talented and as her team was traning 12 and 13, they joined the Little League Tournament. Her team would have to win their sectionals, states, and regional to make the Little League World Series which was many of the kids dream. The team won their sectionals and states playing team from all over Pennsylvania. Next came the regionals. The team made the semifinals and Mo'ne was schduled to pitch. She pitched amzing strking out eight and letting up no runs. From their her team made the Little League World Series or the LLWS. Mo'ne pitched in their first game and was lights out again. Mo'ne's team did not win the LLWS but Mo'ne became a huge inspiration to girls all over the world. Mo'ne was invited to many MLB games to throw out the first pitch and she got to be one of the people who lights the christmas tree at the White house. Mo'ne Davis was a huge part of sports history and will go down as one of the most inspirational girls to ever the play the game of baseball.

Tells the story of how a seven-year-old girl worked hard to become the darling of the sports world.

This story is a tribute to Mo'ne's hard work, her family's support and the vision of a special coach, Steve Bandura. He spotted her tossing a football with her cousin, and noticed she had an especially good arm. Her local rec center sponsored teams for kids, but the catch was, you had to play all 3 sports, not just basketball, so even though Mo'ne liked basketball, she had to play soccer and baseball, too. The rec center was named after Marian Anderson, and the Anderson Monarchs (same name as Jackie Robinson's team) were inspired both by her accomplishments, but also those of Robinson. Bandura helped the kids learn about Robinson's story, and to absorb many of his philosophies. He made a point of taking the kids to historical spots to learn about racism and civil rights. They watched Ken Burn's "Baseball", visited the Baseball Hall of Fame and even barnstormed like an old time team, giving the kids goals and widening their horizons geographically and socially. They were always told to "stay classy" even when an ump's bad calls cost them one of the LL games. (That series was played with the Taney dragons, another Philly team (the monarchs aren't LL) that two boys dreamed of making it to the LL finals; some Monarchs played but others were geographically ineligible.) Mo'ne tries very hard to share the spotlight, and emphasizes the accomplishments of her teammates and the support of her family & friends, coaches and school. She mentions sacrifices her family made for her success. She seems like the real deal and I think kids will be inspired by her story. It's not really about being a star but about hard, team work.

One thing I really enjoyed about this book was the detailed game descriptions ( which sports fans will love) and the fact that Mo'ne described teammates' accomplishments, not just her own.

[Ethan Copeland · Rating 5 out of 5]

This Book is full action. This book is a Non-fiction book and has some really good scenes. If this book was in a series I would say that it doesn’t belong there because it is a biography and it is talking about one person. I think the book was very good I liked the part where she asked to join the basketball league. The character in this book are athletic and really interesting. My favorite character was Mo’ne Davis because she was want to play all these sports and they were with boy and she just thought like she was just like them. She would also play catch with her cousins. Mo’ne had to face a challenge because she was always playing with the boys and sometimes they might not let her. The setting is set in the real world not fantasy. I like how Mo’ne would never give up on herself and she would always stay confident. This book is different from other books because this book is talking about a real person unlike most the books I’ve read. I would describe the book as informational because some people might not know Mo’ne Davis. My favorite part of the book was how she got invited to play on the boys basketball team.

I'm so glad Mo'ne Davis wrote this book. Sure, it's written quickly. Sure, it has quotations thrown in about her from her friends, teammates, classmates, and adults who love her throughout the book that don't fit quite right. Sure, she uses "super" one too many times for me. Sure, she wrote it when she was 13, so it's not classic literature.

However, after her stellar performance as one of two female competitors in last year's Little League World Series and after she pushed Kobe Bryant off the cover of SI, after she cooly and calmly handled pressure from the media and her teammates... I'm glad this book has found its way into the hands of my son Ben. At 6, he's pretty great at baseball and has high hopes about having a future in the sport. Learning about Mo'ne's journey through baseball and basketball and soccer has taught him a whole lot, and her words echo what his father and I have been telling him for the past few years. These lessons include:

- Work hard. Practice hard. Always. Every day.
- Stay focused in school.
- Be a team player. You can't play baseball or soccer or basketball (or a whole lot of other sports) without a good team.
- Learn from your mistakes. Sometimes they provide the best chances to grow.
- Appreciate your family and what they do for you.
- Be humble in the face of success. Make sure you share the spotlight if it falls on you.
- Play lots of different sports. Try new things. Don't commit to one sport too early.

For the past week, as we've finished reading this book together in the evenings, we've begun our days with pitching practice. His stance resembles a certain girl from Philly who he thinks is pretty amazing.

Great job, Mo'ne--best of luck to you, and hope you reach your goal of playing at UConn!

Remember her name: first girl to throw a shutout in the Little League Baseball World Series!
Remember her name: throws a seventy-mile-per-hour fastball, brings new meaning to the saying "You throw like a girl."!!
Remember her name: first Little Leaguer and the youngest athlete to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine!!!

Advice on Empathy, Integrity, Leadership and Accountability:
"But the thing about sports is that you have your ups and downs and you have to keep playing through. Sometimes things go your way, and sometimes things don't. That's all part of the game."

"Coach Steve taught us to be classy - win or lose"

Winner of Seventh grade advisors' award for a girl who has a great work ethic, calm determination, and great tenacity in everything she does and inspires other to do their best work. "I try very hard to be that girl."

"Life isn't always easy, and sometimes you're gonna fail. You have to fail in order to make it somewhere. Everything can't be all success. If you only had success and you lost the first game ever in your life, you wouldn't know how to handle it because you had never lost before.
But failure is actually a good way to succeed. There's always gonna be the setback in sports and in life that will help you do better the next time. Like if there is a championship game and you lose, then next year you're gonna work twice as hard as you did before because you want to win that championship."

In addition to playing three sports - Mo'ne Davis is an honor roll student!!!! Amazing!!!!

Mo'ne Davis is an inspiration to girls who want to play baseball. At age 7 she was noticed by a rec center coach who encouraged her to join their team. The team rotated through basketball, baseball and soccer. Mo'ne was good at all three sports, but her favorite was basketball. She almost stopped playing baseball until the team spent a summer on the road. Meeting new people and bonding with her team gave her a new appreciation for the sport. Eventually, her team made it all the way to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA. Out of thousands of teams, her team made 3rd place. She was such a phenom that she made the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine.

The voice of the writer is like that of a young girl. There's no pomp in the writing. At times it's annoyingly youthful. I'm sure the editor wanted it that way. What I really like about this book is that it shows what people can achieve when the right person steps into their life and becomes their champion. Mo'ne had a family who loved her, but they were economically strapped and living in an urban school district. Her coach encouraged her to apply to a private school and she was accepted. That enabled her to get a better education. Mo'ne had a strong internal motivation that you must have to achieve what she achieved. She also has a kind, respectful personality. It was interesting to read about her journey.

In the book MO'NE DAVIS by Hilary Beard, Mo'ne starts off at seven years old when she was naturally good with sports. She has always played them with her neighbors and brother. Her friends coach noticed her talent and asked her to be on their team. Her mom called the coach and arranged it. The coach made the whole team try out for all the other sports so she was good in all sports. Some sports were challenging but she picked them up quick. She grew to be successful in life and sports. She was inspirational to all girls!
I think this book is amazing because it tells her life story and how she reaches the top! She starts from small and learns the obstacles of sports and life but she gets through them. This book is inspirational and motivational because she says things and goes through things you couldn't even imagine. She never gives up.
I recommend this book to teens because it's an easy going book and it's not hard to understand and read. I not only recommend this to girls but to boys because they would also enjoy this book and also get that girls can do stuff too! This can be good for everyone to read because it's informational and everyone should "remember her name"

It was a great book I really liked it I knew who she was and I wanted to know more about her I play pretty much the same sports she does so I was interested in reading this book I learned way more about her now this is a great book but it should have her date of birth in it but it dose not but it was still a good book

[Tanner Dimond · Rating 5 out of 5]

Remember My Name by Mo'ne Davis is a very good book. I liked for many different reasons. One, was there was a ton of baseball involved with the story and I absolutely love baseball. The second reason why I liked this book was because I liked how she wasn't scared at all to go out and compete with the boys even though she was a girl. Those are some reasons why I liked reading this book.

The book Remember My Name by Mo'ne Davis is all about her life. It is about her journey through her life and accomplishments in sports. It shares about the Anderson Monarchs all the way up to the Taney Dragons. It shares about the schools she goes too her and her friends and just her journey through Little League.

I would recommend this book to people that enjoy sports, hard work, and dedication. This book would be a great book for girls that play sports and or play with the boys. Or just people wanting to know about the girl Mo'ne Davis who plays and dominates with the boys. This was a fantastic book.

The book Mo'ne Davis "Remember my Name" with Hilary Beard is a book about a 13 year old girl who pitches a shutout in the Little League World Series and makes history. The book also tells you about what Mo'ne did before she was in the Little League World Series such as basketball practice and school. Mo'ne is a very talented athlete and great in school.
I would rate this book a 5 out of 5 star book because of how detailed it is and the author makes it paint pictures of the book in your head. The book is very interesting and also very funny. This book deserves 5 stars.
This book is aimed for baseball lovers, but I honestly think that it would be a great book for everyone, even if you don't have a clue what baseball is. After reading it, I would have to say that people that do know baseball will find it more interesting than people who don't know what baseball is. But that doesn't mean that you still can't read it and enjoy it.

[Sarah · Rating 3 out of 5]

Mo'Ne Davis has had incredible accomplishments, and this book does a fine job of recounting her many victories. And while Davis does glean over the hard work and sacrifices she made to get where she was, she has such an upbeat attitude it never seems like things were THAT rough for her. But if you read between the lines, I'm sure things were pretty darn rough.

I would have liked for the book to focus more on her struggles than on her surges of success. There are times where it seems that Davis is simply bragging about her accomplishments, travels, and the famous people she has met. On the other hand, she has a lot to brag about, so why not?

I will recommend this book to reluctant readers who are into softball and baseball. I think more seasoned readers would find this story just "meh" as I did. But I can see some kids really enjoying Davis's recaps of games, and the antics of her teammates.

[Connor Benson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Remember the Name by Mo'ne Davis and Hilary Beard is one of my favorite autobiographies I have ever read. It is a book about determination and breaking all of the stereotypes of throwing like a girl. With an incredible fastball, Mo'ne Davis gets her and her team to the biggest little league tournament there is. She is one of two girls in the tourney. She has accomplished so much in life already, she can't wait for her future.

I honestly thought this book was great book. She detailed everything in depth, had great word choice, and was not boasting about her in any part of the book. Mo'ne is a real team player, that is what I like about her.

I recommend this book to young teens and people that want motivation. She has this grit that makes her want more in life and that has motivated me to want the same. This is why I deeply love this book.

[Brittany Cullen]

I chose this book because I enjoy sports and books on how those who struggled through their life become successful and go on to the bigger leagues. Mo'ne Davis grew up playing with boys and played every sport, she became the first female pitcher to win a game in the little league series. along with being a successful athlete in multiple sports, she also succeeds in school, she is on the honor roll and gets good grades. A girl this young becoming famous is amazing and she worked hard for it. She practiced everyday and she also really enjoys it. This was just a fun book to read that can teach about determination and hard work pays off.

Mo'ne Davis remember my name by Mo'ne Davis is about a girl that plays baseball. Yeah that's right. Not softball, but baseball. The book explains her journey to her success, and how she overcame her fears. Mo'ne never gave up on her dream to be the first girl to ever play baseball.
I thought that Mo'ne Davis remember my name was a great book. After reading this book, it got me motivated to get up and set a goal for myself! The book was very inspiring to me, and I really respect what she did to play baseball.
I would recommend this book to people that like auto-biographies. This book was very entertaining, and I never got bored while reading this unlike some other books.
