Written for children ages 4 and up, TimeOut's Great Baseball
Adventure tells the story of Fresno State's amazing win through the
eyes of Fresno State's beloved mascot TimeOut. When the Fresno
State baseball team gets on the bus to go the College World Series,
TimeOut is sad that the can't come with the team. To cheer up
TimeOut, Coach Mike (FSU baseball head coach Mike Batesole)
promises him that if the team wins the series, he'll ride with the
team in their victory parade. Over the course of the story, TimeOut
follows the team's wins and losses, speaks to Coach Mike and the
players over the telephone, and supports his team all the way to
their win ... and gets to ride in the parade, just as Coach
promised.
TimeOut's unwavering support for his players makes him a great
character for young children to relate to, and children will also
love Thiessen's bold and colorful illustrations of TimeOut,
determined players, cheering fans and baseball action so intense
the ball bursts into flames. Thiessen's vivid illustrations bring
bold characterization to many of the real-life Bulldog heroes of
the 2008 College World Series, including head coach Mike Batesole,
first baseman Alan Ahmady, pitcher Clayton Allison, right fielder
Steve Detwiler, third baseman Tommy Medonca, right fielder Chad
Mozingo, shortstop Danny Muno, second baseman Erik Wetzel and
pitcher Justin Wilson.
The perfect introduction to baseball for the young reader,
"TimeOut's Great Baseball Adventure "tells timeless values of
loyalty, teamwork, friendship, making an effort and overcoming the
odds to victory.
