Operation Baby-Sitter

56 pp. | Little | April, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-316-13723-5 $$13.95
(4) 1-3 Soccer 'Cats series. Illustrated by Daniel Vasconcellos. A new (posthumously published) chapter-book series mixes action-packed soccer sequences with positive messages. In The Captain Contest, ten-year-old Dewey suggests a compromise: he will design the team logo; his pal Bundy will be team captain. Operation Baby-Sitter finds Bundy struggling to be a role model on and off the field. Although the dialogue lacks zip, the play-by-play soccer commentary will capture sports fans' interest. Black-and-white drawings accompany each story.
