Relive the glory of perhaps the greatest World Series in baseball history with this beautiful and historically accurate full-color 32-page hardcover book – a book that can be passed down from generation to generation of Cubbies fans.
"It is the most beautifully written book, and the pictures perfectly capture the moments of that game 7. I had to stop while reading it, twice, because I had goosebumps as it took me back to the night of that game and the emotions I had felt while watching history be made." -- A Happy Cubs Fan!
The story is told in real-time with vibrant illustrations of the important plays in all 7 of the games (including the 17-minute rain delay), revealing the hope and joy as well as despair and anxiety Cubs fans everywhere experienced as the action unfolded. It touches on the long-suffering history of Cubs fans, the Billy goat and black cat curses, as well as the pure joy of finally winning the World Series after 108 years of futility and frustration.
Along with the exciting and heart-felt story, there’s also Fun Cubs Facts and Trivia, full rosters of both teams, and complete box scores of all the games. And as an added bonus, there’s a touching poem saluting and honoring all those Cubs fans who waited more than a lifetime and couldn’t see their dream of a World Series win come true.
'Twas the Night Before Cubbies is the ultimate keepsake for every Cubs fan. Send it as a greeting card to a fellow fan, or to Cardinals or White Sox fans to give them the needle!
"This is an adorable book no matter how old you are! Bought one for my 15-yr old son and the other for my 50-yr old boyfriend...they both loved it!" -- Another Happy Cubs Fan!
Relive the magic of the first Cubs World Series victory in 108 years by reading ‘Twas the Night Before Cubbies to friends and family each and every year!
- 32-page full-color story in Christmas rhyme of action of all 7 games
- Fun Cubs Facts with history of Wrigley Field, the Billy Goat curse, and other World Series near misses
- Full rosters of both teams, box scores of all the games, and a touching closing poem
"Good book, great illustrations. About the whole series, not just game 7. Love the fact page on the back." -- And another Happy Cubs Fan!
