3 out of 5 stars This book is not the greatest book i have read!!!!!!   December 15, 2006
This book is about a ten-year old girl named molly and her sister who is twelve-years old her name is Allison..Molly doesnt like her sister because she says that she is the center of the world,because she was on the best softball team around CA.and also because she was the fastest and the best pitcher.and all of the girls wanted to be just like her.Molly got mad because her dad is the coach and wont let her play because she is only 10 years old...She says that life is not right because of her sister...Well if you would like to know more about the book you will have to just read it...but like i said it's not the best book ever!!!!!!!


5 out of 5 stars It Was Awsome   May 10, 2006
I loved this book. It was so interesting. Once I started reading it I could barely put it down. I play softball and I pitch. Allie is a really great pitcher. I hope that more people read this book. I can relate to both Allie and Molly. If you haven't read this book I highly recommed it. Kathy Mackel is an amazing author and I hope she writes a sequel to this book! It was AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


5 out of 5 stars Wow, did this book jazz our 10 year old softball player!   June 2, 2000
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I purchased this book based on Amazon's recommended readings and readers' book reviews. I didn't expect it to be such a hit, but our 10 year old daughter couldn't stop reading it, talking about it, and reading parts to me. Like Molly, she's lived in the shadow of her siblings attletic prowess, and is only now coming into her own. There are far too few engaging books about girls and athletics out there, but this one is certainly at the top of the list. At my daughter's urging, I read it, and (like her) couldn't put it down. This book deals with all the issues in kids sports -- overpowering parental interest, the effects of a star athlete on the rest of the family, the emotions of competition, and--most importantly--how kids just want to play sports for fun and have fun playing. Highly recommended by two generations in out family!


5 out of 5 stars Wonderful story with a message about true victory   June 24, 1999
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

My two daughters, age 10 and 11, and I read this book together during our own softball season. We couldn't wait for the next chapter to tell us what happened to Allie and Molly and their respective softball teams. The message about what it takes to be the best-at softball, at being a sister, at being a friend, at being Dad and coach-were excellent. We highly recommend this book and have given it to friends. A must-read for young female athletes!!!Lori
