This week's featured story comes from the Martin & Sylvia collection. It's called "Pick-Up League."   Martin wants to join little league baseball like his friend Peter, but Momma and Daddy say he isn’t old enough for organized sports. He has to be nine. Nine! Martin is amazed! But that doesn’t mean there’s no baseball for Martin. Daddy pulls together a pick-up game with friends; flexible rules, bat and ball options, and many creative calls from the sidelines make the game fun for everyone in the family!   If you enjoyed that story, there are hundreds and hundreds more where that came from.
