Game Time, Mallory!

Mallory’s basketball career gets off to a rocky start! When a new basketball league is formed in Fern Falls, Mallory can’t wait to play in it. But none of her friends are on her team. And no matter how hard she tries, she can’t make a basket. Mallory practices… and practices…and practices. But as her team heads to the playoffs, she’s still the weakest player. Will she let her teammates down? Or is there more to being part of a team than just winning games?

“     There’s a new basketball league in Fern Falls. All you have to do is try out and you get placed on a team. Max is on a baseball team. Joey, on a soccer team. Finally . . . the chance I’ve been waiting for!  ” Mallory McDonald—Game Time, Mallory!
