"Anybody's Game: Kathryn Johnston, the First Girl to Play Little League Baseball" by Heather Lang tells the inspiring story of Kathryn Johnston, a young girl who dared to challenge gender norms in the 1970s by becoming the first female player in Little League Baseball. Despite facing skepticism and resistance from her peers and adults alike, Kathryn's determination and passion for the game shine through. The book captures her journey of overcoming obstacles, fighting for her right to play, and proving that baseball is a sport for everyone, regardless of gender. It celebrates empowerment, perseverance, and the spirit of diversity in sports. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
