    Summary: 
    Willie Mays is widely regarded as the greatest all-around player in baseball history because of his unparalleled hitting, defense and base running. Here he offers his lifetime of experience meeting challenges with positivity, integrity and triumph. Presented in 24 chapters to correspond with his universally recognized uniform number, this is the story of a man who values family and community, engages in charitable causes especially involving children and follows a philosophy that encourages hope, hard work and the fulfillment of dreams. -- adapted from jacket
