With lessons on practice and perseverance, this is the perfect beginning reader for kids who love baseball!

Bobby loves baseball. He can run the bases fast. He can slide. He can catch the ball.

But he has never hit the ball.

A lucky bat won’t do the trick—though with hard work and determination, Bobby might just hit a home run.

Full of charming illustrations and simple text by Leonard Kessler, this Level Two I Can Read is for readers who have begun reading on their own, but still need a little help.

Hitting the ball is hard work, but after lots of practice and advice from his friend Willy, Bobby learns how.
