School Library Journal - 03/01/2012 PreS-Gr 2—Through a rhyming text, children take a joyous romp on and off the baseball diamond, learning to be better friends along the way. Clorinda the cow dreams of playing for the Bosstown Red Hats and works with several animals and human neighbors to find their places on the field or in the stands. First, she helps her friend Hop, a pig, find his true calling, and then teaches Deke, a neighbor boy, to play the game and launches him into the big leagues. Kellogg uses his signature style to capture the action and the personalities. Vibrant watercolor illustrations dance across the barnyard and the stadium, capturing the characters' delightful expressions and moods on every page. Predominant themes include sports, friendship, coaching, self-confidence, and helping others achieve their dreams, even if it means subverting one's own. This book is certain to be loved by both listeners and readers alike.—Janene Corbin, Rosebank Elementary School, Nashville, TN - Copyright 2012 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
