Book Reviews of One-Handed Catch

Book Review: Adventurous! by P.T. From Annapolis
Summary: 5 Stars

If you like exciting sports books you'll love One-Handed Catch by M.J Auch. It's realistic fiction and it takes place after WW2. The main characters are Norm, Ellie, Leon and Carl. The main problem is Norm lost his hand on a meat grinder. An adventure the main characters had was making the baseball team. My favorite character was Leon because he was funny, zany, and determined.

Norm reminded me of my brother because he also plays baseball. I had a same experience as Norm when our relief pitcher fractured his arm. My text-to-self connection with Norm is we both play baseball.

My favorite part of the book was when Norm loses his hand. I would not change anything in this book. I think this book is for boys and girls who love baseball.
