Batter Up Wombat

Helen Lester, Lynn Munsinger

eBook - 2008

The new kid in town is a wombat from Down Under. He's having a tough time fitting in, so he tries to join the baseball team. They're excited to see a "Wham-bat" hit, but baseball seems to him like a strange game indeed as his literal interpretations of the lingo, such as "stealing third base," lead to hilarious, and ultimately victorious, results.
