Publisher's Synopsis
Take me out to the ballgame! Tim is a young boy who just loves baseball. His dad gives him a new Rawlings glove for his birthday, and plays catch with Tim every single day. When Tim attends a professional baseball game, he is selected "Fan of the Game." Tim's First Baseball Game is loaded with colorful illustrations that reflect a young child's love for sports. And sure enough, when Tim is old enough, his love of baseball takes him all the way, and he is able to play on a baseball team! This fun-filled story was inspired by the author's son, Tim, whose love of the sport has proven that with dedication and hard work, you can be a success in anything, including baseball. First-time author Susan O'Hara of St. Louis salutes the world of sports for what it has given her two children. "Actually, Coach Steve in the book is my husband. He was the best coach they ever had!" She has already written another book on her son's first soccer game, and envisions writing about all the sports in which her son and daughter played. Her books capture memories of her children when they were young, and many more chapters are waiting to be written.
