<p><b><i>Roller Girl </i>meets <i>Cardboard Kingdom </i>in this original, contemporary graphic novel from award-winning author Pablo Cartaya and <i>New York Times</i> best-selling illustrator Miguel Díaz Rivas.</b><br><br>Baseball is Elena Rueda’s entire life: She may be the only girl on her team, but she’s the best player and everyone knows it. Except . . . Elena has stopped having fun, and it’s time to leave the sport behind.<br><br>The problem is, Elena has no idea who she is without a bat in her hand. Can a summer spent with her brother's quirky friends in an empty sandlot that offers a world of possibility show Elena who she is—and teach her to love to play again?</p>
