Ball Baby

About the Book

Swanee’s dad is the football coach at Black Willow High School. After his star running back is injured he recruits his daughter to fill the vacant position. As a two-time state track gold medalist, Swanee is undeniably fast, but football? Swanee’s skeptical. Can a season of pigskin help her overcome her natural timidity? Fans cheer as Swanee’s personal journey takes her from the sidelines to the headlines. A yearning for success is kindled as she learns that she can do hard things, and the score at the final buzzer does not provide the only victory.
