Synopsis

Join nine-year-old Hubaldo Romero Páez in Venezuela as he introduces his friends, his family, and his favorite sport—baseball. Complemented by a map and an English-Spanish baseball glossary, Hubaldo’s story is an inviting introduction to a foreign land viewed through the lens of a shared passion. “This dynamic sports photo-essay will be fun for sports fans and effective for social studies units.”—Booklist
