內容簡介
內容簡介 Inspired by the life of pioneering female baseball player Alta Weiss, and dramatized by Terry Widener's bold illustrations, Girl Wonder tells the unforgettable story of a true American original. Alta Weiss was born to play baseball, simple as that. From the age of two, when she hurls a corncob at a pesky tomcat, folks in her small Ohio town know one thing for sure: She may be a girl, but she's got some arm. When she's seventeen, Alta hears about a semipro team, the Independents. Here's her big chance But one look at Alta's long skirts tells Coach all he needs to know--girls can't play baseball But faster than you can say "strike out," Alta proves him wrong: Girls can play baseball
