![]() ![]() I can't wait to see what she writes next. I'm so delighted to know there are authors like Mozer out there making sure that all kids are represented on the shelves. To save her dreams, Sam must find a way to fix her perfect trip. ![]() But a family camping trip filled with secrets and surprises challenges everything she thought she knew about what the future will hold. The Sweet Spot reminds us that even though it isn't easy, one of the best ways to attack adversity is with determination and a positive attitude. She's made the boys' travel baseball team, her friendship with Mike is turning into something more, and she's even connected with her stepmother. It's hard to figure out who and what you're supposed to be with other people throwing aroung ignorant labels, sterotypes and abusive behavior. But there's also a sweet spot in life and it's when EVERY PERSON is in the place where they get to be the best version of themselves. In Mozer's novel, the sweet spot is that place on the baseball bat that's just right-allowing the batter to hit it out of the park. In a world where two former female West Point graduates can kick butt in Ranger School, there is NO REASON why a girl who loves baseball and plays as well (or possibly better than the boys) shouldn't be allowed-EXPECTED- to play. This is an important book for girls and boys. ![]()
