Freddy the Fox Joins the Team

By Jasper Fielding

Freddy the Fox is excited to join the Critter League baseball team-until it's time to play.

What if he messes up?
What if he isn't good enough?

As Freddy steps onto the field for his very first practice, his worries feel bigger than his glove. But with encouragement from Coach Riley the Rabbit, patience from Benny the Beaver, and support from his new teammates, Freddy begins to discover something important: confidence doesn't come from being perfect-it comes from trying, learning, and playing together.
