    Jeff King

    language (Jeff King, July 25, 2014)
    Tommy John Evans is crazy about baseball. And this year he's moving up to Little League's highest level, The Majors, which means he's going to be one of the youngest kids on a team of sixth, seventh and eighth graders. That's OK, he can handle it! Or can he?Maybe not. While he's used to being one of the best players on his Little League team, this is just plain ridiculous. The kids are twice his size! And one of them, Brett Sizemore, seems to have a personal grudge against him. Can his past experience and desire to be the best help him through this hard time? Or will he be sent back down to The Minors for not keeping up with the big boys? If only his hero, Derek Jeter, was there to offer some advice! He'd know what to do...Join Tommy John as he steps up to the plate in The Big Leagues! It's 'A Tommy Baseball Book' that will have you laughing, biting your nails and sitting on the edge of your seat wondering whether Tommy John is going to figure out a way to get his bully off his back, keep his dad from boring him to death with baseball quotes and finally make it as the starting shortstop for the New York Yankees (once his hero, Derek Jeter, retires of course!) Don't miss this introduction to the new, exciting series!40,000+ words.
