In some of these stories girls played with boys in their sports or just with other girls or boys! My favorite story was "Batting after Sophie" because I LOVE softball so much and I related to this story a lot.
I'm even going to read some of the authors' other books such as Batand A whole new ball game, I liked all of the stories but if I had to choose, my least favorite was the stickball one, It was a bit hard to understand and I
