Safe at Home: A Comeback Kids Novel
by Mike Lupica
Nick Crandell feels like he doesn’t belong anywhere. He has never felt like he belongs, really. He doesn’t fit in with his new foster parents. They don’t know the first thing about sports – and he’s not exactly the model student they want him to be. It’s only a matter of time until they realize he’s not the right kid for them.
And Nick certainly doesn’t belong playing varsity baseball, he’s only 12 years old! His teammates want a catcher their own age. But Nick needs to prove that he belongs – to his parents, his team and himself.
