This week I‘ve chosen a couple of books in which softball plays a major part. Both of these are books I‘ve read, but I still need to get hold of copies to add to my class library.

This was a great middle grade story about learning to deal with tough things and learning from your own mistakes. It‘s about learning to cope, to communicate, and consider others. It‘s about that point in life when you realize your parents are just people too, and sometimes they make big mistakes. It‘s also very much about softball and love of the game. 🥎

I really loved that this book looked at topics I haven‘t much come across in middle grade: making mistakes and being okay with not succeeding. The analogy shared for “coming up short” in some areas of our lives is genuinely really helpful to me. I enjoyed seeing Bea work through the process and learn to treat herself and others with grace. Nobody is perfect, but we can give something our all even if the outcome isn‘t guaranteed. ⚾️
