Discover a life-changing story about courage, teamwork, and the power of believing in your dreams!
When Jack discovers that his pet rat Lucky has a knack for baseball, the little furball quickly becomes the star mascot (and secret batting coach!) for his Little League team. Their decision is an instant hit, and Jack is quickly thrown into a wild adventure as he makes new friends, learns the value of teamwork, and discovers the importance of good sportsmanship.
But after their arch-rivals, the Devil Rays, decide that having a rat on the pitch is cheating, tensions rise and the future of Lucky's place on the team is cast into doubt. So, when an accident occurs on the pitch, Jack is left wondering if a ballpark is the right place for a rat, after all. It's down to Jack's teammates and Lucky's brother Gus-Gus to help the duo stand up to their bullies and find the courage to never give up on their dreams!
Will Jack, Lucky and Gus-Gus lead their Little League team to victory? Or, will they let the Devil Rays scare them off the pitch for good?
Dive into this heartwarming middle-grade baseball adventure by award-winning authors Alisse Lee Goldenberg & Joseph Goldenberg. With powerful themes of family, friendship, teamwork, and the importance of following your dreams, Lucky At Bat is the perfect inspirational baseball story for boys and girls ages 7-12!
A portion of the proceeds will also be going to Teeny Snoots Rat Rescue to help our small furry friends in need.
