Late-night host Jimmy Fallon releasing 2 baseball children's books

Late-night TV host Jimmy Fallon is expanding his literary reach with two new children’s books celebrating Major League Baseball. The board books, titled *Your Baby’s First Word Will Be Dodgers* and *Your Baby’s First Word Will Be Yankees*, will debut on February 2, 2027, under Macmillan’s Feiwel and Friends imprint.

Preorders are already available, and the books feature playful illustrations by Miguel Ordóñez, depicting farm animals vocalizing the names of the two iconic franchises. Fallon’s playful take on early baseball fandom aligns with MLB’s efforts to cultivate lifelong fans, offering parents a lighthearted twist on the classic milestone of a child’s first word.
