Table of ContentsReviewsA moving tale of baseball, magic, and former rivals who come together to solve a problem. -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Baseball provides energetic context to this story in alternating voices of friends in a lovingly drawn and diverse community. Add magic, numbers, Shakespeare, and lashings of mystery, all seasoned with artful sprinkles of culinary flavor and equal parts humor and heart. Cleverly adjacent to the world of Midsummer's Mayhem, yet standing wonderfully well alone. -- Uma Krishnaswami, author of Threads of Peace It's no mystery why Rajani LaRocca's Much Ado About Baseball is a home run. Like the smell of freshly cut infield grass, this fast-paced story of friendship, fitting in, and finding yourself is filled with magic and math. It pops with baseball excitement and summer days full of possibilities. -- David A.
