1-3Gym Shorts series.
Illustrated by
Adam McCauley.
Rocky was the best catcher in the league until he broke his arm making a tag. Now healed, Rocky keeps yanking his arm out of harm's way whenever a runner comes in, costing his team many games. Ready to quit, he gets inspiration from his supportive friends and skateboarding dog. The series continues to feature amiable characters overcoming relatable sports-themed challenges.
