"Every parent will want to give their baseball and softball players
a copy of ON DECK for their birthday" - Barton D. Schmitt, M.D.,
Bestselling Author of Your Child's Health "Each brief chapter
stands alone, offering clear, practical advice and insight
regarding the challenges and opportunities life throws our way." -
Gail Reichlin, Founder and Executive Director, Parents Resource
Network; and, Bestselling Author of The Pocket Parent Everything a
child needs to know about life can be learned from the dugout
steps. Every pitch, hit, and play on the baseball field is its own
life lesson. From taking charge under a pop fly, to taking risks on
the base paths, to taking heart on the bench, THE ON DECK CIRCLE OF
LIFE connects parents and their kids through the analogies, axioms,
and allegories that baseball offers for life off the field. The
author brings his unique perspective as pediatrician, teacher,
kids' baseball coach, and parent to this book of 101 life lessons.
As an internationally recognized pediatric specialist and
professor, Dr. Harley Rotbart has been named to Best Doctors in
America every year since 1996. As a kids' baseball coach, from
T-ball through high school, Coach Harley has studied the fine
points of a fine game. He has used baseball to guide his players,
his patients, and his own kids in everything from homework,
humility and helping others, to dating, driving and drugs. Written
for kids of all ages to read, and for parents to read over their
kids' shoulders, this is a warm and wise playbook for the game of
life.
