21: The story of Roberto Clemente Book by Wilfred Santiago Presentation by Pat

Roberto Clemente ü Roberto Clemente, generally you think good baseball player. But he was more than that. I read 21: The story of Roberto Clemente. The graphic novel tells you about how rough he had it. When he was young his sister died in a fire. The kid lived in poverty and played baseball with a stick and a bottle cap.

His older years ü In Roberto Clemente’s older years he made to the major leagues. He started of on the Montréal Royals, not playing at all. Then got drafted to the Pittsburgh Pirates. But not all was well. On a drive home some one hit there car. His father died but he lived.

His family ü Luisa Clemente: she was Roberto's mom. A hard working nice smart women. She shows lots of change in the book. ü Melchor Clemente: Roberto’s dad. He grew up as a fore man in a sugarcane processing company. Is really tough based on context. ü Matino Clemente: A war veteran, ex-baseball player and Roberto's brother. ü Vera Clemente: a girl with a strict father who has to meet Roberto before he can marry her.
