Publisher's Synopsis
Danny Abbot's fifth grade year is crawling by, but things change quickly when he loses his favorite teacher and makes the Majors of Little League all in the same week. Unfortunately, his new teacher turns out to be anything but friendly, and that's not the only bad news. A questionable maneuver has landed the league's two hardest-throwing pitchers on the same team. As the season unfolds, Danny must face not only his teacher but also a powerhouse team that's devouring the competition. (Ages 12+) Jackson & Franklin is suitable for younger readers but can also be enjoyed by anyone who played sports as a kid and doesn't mind taking a look back.
