Strikeout! A Hanna Perry Baseball Story (ePub)

Hanna, an eleven-year-old transplant from Iowa, loves baseball. But the Bay Area Little League won't let girls play. Suddenly, the New York Giants and the Brooklyn Dodgers announce they are moving to San Francisco and Los Angeles. The times are changing, and the stakes couldn't be higher.
Which team will be allowed to call themselves the Giants, Hanna's sandlot team of boys and girls or the downtown team of bullies managed by the overbearing local used car dealer?
After a battle involving the city council and the parents of the sandlot kids, it all comes down to one epic summer game never to be forgotten. Batter up!

• "If you love baseball, San Francisco, girls getting active in sport, you will love Strikeout!!!"
• "Charming little book where two sandlot baseball teams face-off in a high stakes game - with a unique prize for the winners. The best part of the book is when the kids are playing ball and without a lot of skill, they still manage to get around the bases. Very enjoyable read for any age. I hope there is a sequel, Hannah and her little brother were a cute pair."
• "Good little read, particularly for those who love youth baseball and are young at heart. While the story of Hanna and her teammates takes place back in the fifty's, the underlying message of family values, team playing and a spirit of never giving up, even when dirt is thrown at you, is still good today. I hope to read more about Hanna and her team as they continue to take on life's challenges growing up."
