Overview

Samantha the Shortstop loves baseball and loves her team, the All-Stars. Her twin brother Sam plays second base (read all about him in Sam the Second Baseman Sticks With It). When Sam throws a ball to the third baseman and the catch is missed, the team is grouchy and grumbly. Samantha steps in to help them work it out. She learns that a positive attitude can make a big difference, whether it's on the field or at home. When Samantha's attitude changes, the whole team responds in a positive way. Look for the other books in the Threads and Friends series, where kids learn valuable life lessons from the warm and engaging All-Stars team. All proceeds from book sales go to support the Peter J. Mulry Foundation, which brings life lessons through sports to kids all over the country.
