Joy in Mudville
In this next-game sequel to Casey at the Bat, a female pitcher uses her athletic creativity to win the day.
Kirkus Reviews "…the repartee between the whining batter and the umpire is delightful, as is Joy's highly imaginative, definitely rule-breaking pitching style. The old ball game is still great fun."
Booklist "…a good addition to the slim number of picture books about girls who excel at sports."
School Library Journal "There's a not-so-subtle message here, but it's delivered with pitch-perfect tone. This playful retelling wins a place for itself alongside the many iterations of Casey's tale."
