Two Cultures-One Game-One Wish

Joey Marconi’s life in the Bronx covered all the bases-the best pizzeria on the planet, a winning baseball team, and Yankee Stadium just a pitcher’s throw away. But when his family moves to the country, Joey slides into a major slump. To make matters worse, his Nonna’s legendary meatballs are starting to taste lousy.

Then he meets Bobbi Ming-a baseball lover whose face and heart bear the scars of a tragic accident.

Joey’s not sure what to think of their budding friendship, but he relies on her to help navigate his new life-including school bullies, Nonna acting crazier than his curveball, and a trio of loveable llamas.

There’s a lot to figure out.

Joey and Bobbi make a strong team, but when Bobbi buckles under the weight of being teased, Joey must decide where his true loyalties lie-with his new friend, or the biggest baseball game of his life.
