A Grand Slam Birthday
About Book “A Grand Slam Birthday"
When Dory Oslo arrives at her cousin’s birthday party, nobody looks like they’re having too much fun. In fact, the kids are lined up against the wall. But Dory, (of The Upside-Down Gardener) turns up the excitement once again as her cousin opens her gift and finds something that turns the party inside-out and into something quite unexpected—and FUN!
Dory, her cousin Izzy, and their friends learn a thing or two about having fun, trying new things, and having confidence in yourself.
The story is about much more than baseball. It will engage a wide range of picture book readers, whether they know or care about the sport or not. The message about trying new things is really a lesson on positivity and creative pursuits. This approach will delight both picture book readers and their read-aloud parents with a taste of something different.
