The "Baseball Buddies" series offers young readers heartwarming stories filled with friendship, sportsmanship, and life lessons, all centered around America’s favorite past-time. Meet the Baseball Buddies, a diverse group of young boys and girls who come together to form a baseball team. Each team member has their unique strengths and personalities. With the help of their enthusiastic coach, Coach Joe, they embark on an exciting journey to learn the basics of baseball and how to approach life's challenges with courage, determination, and teamwork. In Book 1: Building a Team Luis joins his new baseball team, the Manatees, where things seem hopeless at first. Some of his new teammates— including “loud and obnoxious” home-run slugger Jimmie—are mean to him or to each other. His new coach doesn’t tell the players everything to do like his old coach did. And some of the Manatees seem more interested in goofing off than in working hard. Then Coach Joe makes Luis team captain. Will Luis rise to the challenge? Can he get the Manatees to balance working hard and having fun? Will he help his teammates learn to be friends rather than compete? Baseball Buddies explores the power of working together, what it takes to build a team, and the lasting friendships that form on the baseball field.
