To start with, you need to know that I love baseball even though I am not very good at it. Next, you should know that this is my real name - Sylvester Coddmyer III - honestly. Even though I went to the team try-outs and gave it my best, it seemed best not to sign up. Until I met George Baruth. He caught up with me after practice and offered to help me with my hitting and catching. Mr. Baruth knew a lot and I learned quick, quick enough to get on the team. Mr. Baruth taught me so well that everyone in town was soon talking about me and the home runs I was hitting. They all wanted to know how I got so good.

Reader Comments
Babe Ruth? Alive Again?Commenter: Alan, grade 2
Mr. Baruth acts and plays like Babe Ruth. Interesting. And maybe a little dangerous? Read the rest of the series and you'll find out what I mean by 'dangerous'. (The series is only four books, so, don't worry.)
Meet Joseph Calderaro, eighth-grade optimist. Life is going smoothly for him until his social studies teacher assigns the essay, 'Tracing Your Past: A Heritage Essay.' There's only one little problem- Joseph was adopted from Korea by his Italian parents, and knows very little about his heritage, or his birth mom. Take the journey with Joseph as he comes to terms with being Korean, as well as Italian, or in Joseph's words, 'an ethnic sandwich.'
