I purchased the Ohtani Journey and Blue Bloods. They're both great. I had also purchased Vince Scully's The Voice when it first came out. Loved it. ... All 3 are 👍... Thank you

I love it ! I've bought a total of six hard cover books from you guys already and they're fabulously made. Excellent quality, durable and the color in the pages is top notch. I haven't actually started reading the Shohei Ohtani book yet, I bought 3 books this time and I started with the Dodgers "Blue Bloods" book first then I'll move on to "Best In Sho" and leaving the Ohtani's Journey book for last hehe
I'm sure it won't be the last books I purchase from Pediment.
I don't see anyone else making these books so I'm really glad you guys are.
Thank you for making these awesome books!!
