Jake - Paperback

by Alfred Slote (Author)

Jake, a tough, independent eleven-year-old ballplayer lives with his Uncle Lenny, a musician, and pretty much takes care of himself. His baseball team, the Print-Alls, is in first place, but they need a coach in order to stay in the League. No one's father wants to do it, so Jake and his team come up with a plan that might be crazy enough to work.
