There's No Base Like Home
Review
By Pablo Cartaya, Pura Belpré Honor-winning author of THE EPIC FAIL OF ARTURO ZAMORA
In this story of stepping outside the box, Jessica Mendoza and her sister Alana have written a delightful, female-driven sports story about a young girl following her dreams and not being afraid to stand out. I was rooting for awesome Sophia and her whole familia from the first pitch. Go Sophie, go!
