Reviews
"Filled with heart, this tale brings to life outspoken and determined Maria, her love for baseball, and her multicultural community and their challenges and triumphs. A loving look at a slice of American life new to children's books." -- Kirkus Reviews "This historical sports story will appeal to many elementary-aged students and provides a rich basis for a discussion of prejudice and the importance of standing up for one's beliefs." -- School Library Journal "A testament to the power of family, identity, faith and one girl's strong drive for fairness. At the same time, it also shows us how difficult it is to evoke change, especially in the face of the twin forces of racism and sexism.... Readers will see in Maria a hero, not only for her own time, but for all time." -- Newbery Honor Winner Kathi Appelt, author of The Underneath "This timely, important, superb novel made me cry, laugh out loud, and burn with anger at injustice....

I let the seller know that the item received was a cook book that was offered as a free item with the Sourcebook for Aphasia that I ordered. This is being ignored, the tracking number is for the cookbook. I have not received the book that I paid for which is Sourcebook for Aphasia.
