She's too busy folding laundry, making lunches, getting her younger twin brothers to do their homework, and navigating the perils of middle school friendships to take baseball seriously. But every afternoon Gemma picks up her baseball glove to pitch to Teddy during his batting practice-throwing sliders down and away, fastballs right over the middle (not too fast or he'll get mad), and hanging curveballs high and tight.

Reynard’s Tale: A Story Of Love & Mischief HC - Ben Hatke

Beloved children's author Ben Hatke turns his pen to a very special project for adults: an atmospheric tribute to the medieval folklore tradition of trickster tales, starring Reynard the Fox.

Featuring charming black-and-white illustrations and a clever narrative, Reynard's Tale follows our hero through a series of encounters with other classic figures from this body of folklore to piece together a headlong journey through a perilous landscape filled with murderers, kings, ex-lovers, mermaids, and even Death herself.
