Tween Chapter Chat: Out of Left Field (4th-6th Grade Book Club)

Join us for this book club for students in grades 4-6 (ages 9 and up). This September enjoy Out of Left Field by Ellen Klages. Pick up a copy at the Rohnert Park Children's Desk up to 5 weeks before meeting while supplies last. Expect snacks! From the publisher's description: "Seems like the whole world wants to get between Katy Gordon and her baseball dreams. Every kid in the neighborhood knows she's the best pitcher around! But it's 1957 and baseball is a boy's game; it always has been. Get ready for the wind-up: Katy's going to prove she's not the only girl who plays baseball. There's a whole roster of female ball players whose history will help this spunky ten-year-old fight back." "There are writers with unique voices and important things to say about people of all kinds and shapes and minds. Ellen Klages is one of those writers." -- Neil Gaiman, Author of the Newbery Award Winner The Graveyard Book "Featuring powerful female characters, this is historical fiction that doesn't drag for a second." -- School Library Journal "A home run filled with hard questions and no easy answers." -- San Francisco Chronicle
