Vivy Cohen is an 11-year-old autistic girl, who has been interested in being a knuckleball pitch since she met an MLB professional on a school field trip. She starts writing letters to that baseball player, and soon he starts to respond! The book is written in back and forth letters between Vivy and the MLB player. While writing letters, she starts playing on a little league team. The friendship and advice between the professional player and girl through her personal setbacks and his professional challenges are heartwarming.
Review
I love a book in letter form. The letters are endearing. They really show the emotional and social challenges of some learners. The challenges Vivy faces will resonate with different kids in different ways. For example, she has many social challenges with friends and teammates. She can be very stubborn and persistent, especially when things are not going her way!
This book has been particularly popular at my school with young female athletes. Many of the girls have enjoyed learning about the struggles Vivy has on her team. Being on a team sport, no matter if you have autism or not, has its ups and downs. Through her challenges and perseverance you can’t help, but love her! This is definitely in my top for the Intermediate Nutmegs this year!… (más)
