(3) 4-6 It's 1957, and talented pitcher Katy Gordon isn't eligible to play Little League baseball because she's a girl. Frustrated, she sets off to fight the rule and discovers the stories of a dozen (real-life) women baseball pioneers. Katy's persistence is admirable in this light story of resistance. Appended with additional information on the inspiring women ("Meet Katy's Twelve Ballplayers") and an author's note. Reading list, websites. Glos.
