Becoming A Little League Mom

"Little league baseball is a rite of passage for so many young Americans. The smell of the field, the sound of the bat hitting the ball, and the feeling of that first homerun are memories carried in the hearts of boys and girls across the country--and in their mothers' hearts, too. It's a fun time, but an intense one, and it can be intimidating for both the players and their moms as they try to learn the ins and outs of the little league world. Deborah C. Alderink has written a guidebook for mothers entering this new phase of parenthood. With candid wit and humor, she tackles the basics of baseball and the intricacies of little league life that are rarely discussed. It's information from a mom who's been there. If you have a child who is thinking of joining a little league team, read this book before registration day--and don't go to a game without it!" -- Backcover
