Super-Sized Slugger
Super-Sized Slugger

Overweight kid's baseball dreams confront school bullies.

Cody's story is relatable if you've ever felt like an outsider. His love for baseball shines through, despite the challenges he faces with bullying and crime at school. It’s a heartening tale for anyone who's struggled to be seen for who they are, rather than how they appear. Plus, it's co-written by baseball legend Cal Ripken Jr., adding an authentic touch to the sports action.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Cody Parker is the new kid in school. He’s overweight, scared and hates his new life in Dullsville, Maryland, aka Baltimore, where he’s a target–okay, a big target–for brutal teasing. But he loves baseball. And despite his size, he plays third base like a dream. Too bad he’s competing for the starting job on the Orioles of the Dulaney Babe Ruth League against budding hoodlum Dante Rizzo, who vows to squeeze Cody’s head like a grape if he beats him out. Life gets even more complicated when Cody’s school, York Middle, is beset by a rash of mysterious thefts, a crime wave that threatens to sideline Cody–and ruin a golden season for the Orioles. Will Cody ever succeed in getting people to see him for who he really is?
