A SEASON OF DARING GREATLY By: Ellen Emerson White

A SEASON OF DARING GREATLY  By: Ellen Emerson White
Jill Cafferty is a star pitcher. There is only one problem, she plays baseball. And she is really, really, really, good. Being a girl playing baseball is not quite such a big deal until she is in high school. Local news stations start to come to her games.Scouts from all over are keeping an eye on her. It's draft week. All Major League Baseball teams will pick their players for the next season. Jill will likely to be drafted, becoming the first women ever on an Major League Baseball team, so she is not surprised when she is. But here's the catch, she was drafted 3rd round, which is incredibly high. She could be making millions of dollars. The media goes crazy, she has many fans but also many protesters. There is tons of pressure on a girl who isn't even 18 yet. What will happen? Find out in A Season of Daring Greatly, a great book for almost all teenagers whether or not you are interested in baseball.
