Author of The House That Ruth Built, Kelly Bennett and Big Unc's, Nick Wilson, Maker of Premium Sauces and Rubs Kelly Bennett is the author of many award-winning books for children.  However, her latest book, The House That Ruth Built can be enjoyed by children as well as adults.  Illustrated by Susanna Covelli, it is as stated quite eloquently on her website, a "historical non-fiction picture book celebrating baseball, Babe Ruth & the first baseball stadium in the world.  The House That Ruth Built recreates the excitement—on and off the field—of that 1923 opening day game in Yankee Stadium. Prior to the game, legendary slugger Babe Ruth said he’d “give a year of his life to hit a homer” that day. In the bottom of the third inning, two on, two out, the big question was: Could the Babe come through?"  So much great information is found within the books pages.  Go to  https://www.kellybennett.com/ for more information on Kelly Bennett and her books. Nick Wilson AKA Big Unc is a maker of premium sauces and rubs with bottles adorned with very creative artwork.  Nick started out by creating a beautiful backyard kitchen with the intention of being a caterer.  However, town codes changed his plans, he did a 180 by coming up with an alternative and now is the proud owner of the Big Unc brand.  Taken from his website, "We don't measure our ingredients here, and we cook to temp as opposed to cooking to time. The idea is to be comfortable with getting creative and to experiment with new flavor profiles. Fresh groceries and proper preparation are the keys to a great meal!  After years of developing our flavor profiles, we have decided to release our seasoning blends to the world through Big Unc BBQ Rubs."  Go to  https://strongarmbarandgrill.com/  for more information on Big Unc and to order the products. We conclude the show with the song, Baseball Always Brings You Home from the musician, Dave Dresser and the poet, Shel Krakofsky.
