Part of the I Can Read series
A young boy helps his team win a baseball game despite his small size.
Harold, the smallest player in little league, struggles to keep up with the game. Always benched, he dreams of proving himself. When an important game arrives, Harold's moment to show that size doesn't define skill finally comes. Can he turn his disadvantage into an unexpected triumph?
Of all the players in the little league, Harold was the littlest.No matter how hard he tries, Harold is no good at baseball. The ground balls always bounce over his head, and his little legs never get him to the pop flies fast enough. So the only place Coach Lombardi puts him is on the bench. Until one day, during a very important game, Harold gets his big chance to show that being little isn’t so bad after all.
