The book I am reviewing is about a kid, Martin, who wants to play baseball, but he doesn’t have any equipment to play. The kids already on the team are making fun of him because he’s poor and can’t afford any equipment. Until Barry gives him a baseball glove and bat so he can play on the team. It was a lucky bat for Barry and he hopes it will be lucky for Martin to. The kids still made fun of Martin saying that he couldn’t play. He then talks to the coach and gets to play. Does Martin’s lucky bat get him hits or does he strike out and never play again? I would recommend this book to someone who likes to read about baseball or likes Matt Christopher as an author. I like his books because my older cousins are related to Matt Christopher. I read his books to support him, and it’s really cool to be related to an author.
