Curve Ball (Paperback)

Tom Poulos is sure his baseball team, the Jarvis Badgers, will make the Toronto playoffs this year.
He's looking forward to a summer of playing little league and watching big league ball, until he's sent to Winnipeg to stay with relatives he hasn't even met. Winnipeg doesn't have a major league team and his Uncle Nick, a first-generation migrant from Greece, is strange in an old-world kind of way. Tom soon finds, however, that a smaller field still offers plenty of challenges--to play and to learn.
"Curve Ball" shows how unexpected changes--in sport and in life--offer opportunities to learn and to grow.
