If you green up in the 1950s or 60s.you probably saw this book in the school library. Maybe you even read it.It’s a great book about believing in yourself rather than in luck

Perfect for 3rd grade baseball loving boys
My 9 year old loved this book! For once he was actually interested in reading the whole book to find out what would happen at the end

Written in the 50’s
Good book, but you can definitely tell it was written in the 50’s because of the language used. Words kids don’t really hear today, like “swell” and things like that. It’s a good book though and I’m glad I got it for my 8 year old grandson.
