Horn Book (Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 CDT 2015)

These graphic novels for younger readers have a similar premise: a star athlete with great physical gifts must overcome a mental block in order to realize his full potential and lead his team to victory. The comic-panel art is easy to follow; the formulaic story lines celebrate hard work, grit, and determination. Writing and discussion prompts are appended. Glos.

Jared Richards is undefeated in baseball games--video games, anyway. But when he loses a bet to his best friend, Jared is forced to get off the couch and step onto the field for his school's baseball team tryouts. Despite the fact that he's never even held a baseball before, Jared ends up being pretty impressive as a pitcher--until the line between video games and reality begins to blur. Can Jared sort out the glitch in his brain before he blows the big game?
