One Season In the Sun

Part of the important work that Gemma Open Door does to encourage literacy among adult reluctant readers: One Season in the Sun.

From the publisher’s description:

“The history of baseball is filled with forgotten names—players who are good enough to reach the top of the sport but who, for any number of reasons, land at the edges of the game. Some spend a week or two in the major leagues and then disappear back into the minors. Many leave the sport for good. Still, for an afternoon, a week, or a couple of months, these men stood on the field alongside the best players in The Show. Here are gripping stories of their brief moments in the sun.”
