The St. Louis Cardinals' very own Fredbird and award winning author Ed Wheatley will be coming to central Friday, August 26th in a program that highlights reading. The book that will be highlighted is "Incredible Cardinals" and it is available for our students to purchase! Orders are due by Wednesday 8/24, a form will be sent home tomorrow.
Deep in Busch Stadium’s left field, you’ll find a wall of the Cardinals best. The greatest Cardinals of all time are painted there, reminding us that dreams do come true. On this wall Dizzy Dean still throws his flaming fastball. Lou Brock flashes his supersonic speed around the bases. Ozzie Smith puts on a show with his fielding magic. Come visit the story of each player, as their tales of greatness come to life. Students will not only learn about these immortal players, they will see how their stories evolved into a special book filled with memorable and colorful moments recalled by all fans. This amazingly illustrated Cardinal tale creates the perfect bonding opportunity between children, their parents and grandparents as they together share these memories. After all, these special players were also the heroes of each child’s parents and grandparents.
