Knuckleball Ned

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tim Bowers. Klutzy ball Ned constantly wobbles into things. On his first day of school, the dreaded Foul Ball Gang quickly dubs him Knucklehead Ned. However, Sammy Softball and Connie Curveball think Ned's moves are cool, and when the unique skills aid a playground rescue, he's aptly named Knuckleball Ned. Endearing baseball-headed characters in light color washes are the perfect pitch for this amusing tale.
