Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Roller Girl meets Cardboard Kingdom in this original, contemporary graphic novel from award-winning author Pablo Cartaya and New York Times best-selling illustrator Miguel Díaz Rivas.
Baseball is Elena Rueda's entire life: She may be the only girl on her team, but she's the best player and everyone knows it. Except . . . Elena has stopped having fun, and it's time to leave the sport behind.
The problem is, Elena has no idea who she is without a bat in her hand. Can a summer spent with her brother's quirky friends in an empty sandlot that offers a world of possibility show Elena who she is--and teach her to love to play again?
Ages 8-12 Disney Hyperion.
Grades 4-6 Disney Hyperion.
Elena Rueda loves baseball -- and is the best player on her team -- but recently has stopped having fun, so during a summer spent with her brother's quirky friends she reflects on who she is and maybe learns love to play again.
