A good book!

Review by Edina

If you are in need of a good book, I totally recommend GET A GRIP VIVY COHEN. Vivy has autism and is an incredible knuckleball pitcher. With the help and advice of Vincent James Capello, a professional knuckleball pitcher, Vivy is able to play baseball on a real team, not just play catch with her brother. Do you think Vivy has what it takes to play baseball on a real team? Read GET A GRIP VIVY COHEN to find out.

Read This Book!

Review by Gerb3

This is a very good book about an autistic girl who wants to play baseball. I liked it because she wouldn’t give up despite her differences and challenges. I would definitely recommend it to a friend.
