Great book! Kids that like baseball will absolutely adore this book. Healy definitely captures the highs and lows of the game of baseball, while also subtly weaving in messages of persistence, teamwork, and confidence. The main thing that was great about this book was the plot. The layout of three fails and then a major success worked really well. The story was a great length and maintained my attention from start to finish. Lastly, the illustrations conveyed motion and mood very nicely. Bravo!

Time to Play Baseball! is perfect for new athletes preparing to take the field. I love that the story goes over key baseball language so that families can support their new baseball players in better understanding the game.

Love this story about a team's first game of the season. Lots of teachable moments in this book from baseball vocabulary, sportsmanship, teamwork and expectations during a ballgame. My boys would both love this book for the story and the illustrations.
