About the Book
Emerson Park, in Auburn, New York, is home of the baseball fields
used by Auburn little league for its games. It’s a place where a young
player’s dreams can come true and where memories are made and
revisited. For nine-year-old Nathaniel, it’s where he gets to do his
favorite thing—play baseball. At one important game, it becomes
apparent there is more at stake than the outcome of this game between
two teams. At stake are the hopes of Nathaniel and his family—a lot of
weight on the shoulders of one boy, especially if he is autistic. Join
Nathaniel as he struggles to find his place in a world that often
seems too big to comprehend. Witness his triumph as seen through the
eyes of his coach, his parents, and his outspoken and hard-playing big
brother. Be careful, or this special boy may manage to hit, run, and
pitch his way into your heart the way he’s done so many others. Based
on real events occurring throughout the little league career of
Nathaniel Donch, this story will load up the bases with your heart,
mind, and soul and send them home like a last inning, walk-off grand
slam. |
