by Walter Dean Myers (Author)

An ALA Notable Children's Book from the award-winning author of Monster in which "wit, sensitivity, and insight [are combined] to create this funny, fast-paced story about three orphaned children and the Elks, a Little League baseball team" (Publishers Weekly).

T.J., his younger brother, Moondance, and Mop--Miss Olivia Parrish--grew up together in the same orphanage. Now T.J. and Moondance have been adopted, and Mop has to find a family before the orphanage closes and "leftover" kids are sent away. Mop hopes that if she can play catcher for the Elks, the Little League baseball team that her friends have joined, the coach will be so impressed that he and his wife will adopt her.

It's going to take a lot of teamwork for her, T.J, and little Moondance to make their dreams come true!
