Baseball has been my passion since the time I started playing the game as a child and it remains that way today, sixty some years later. I hope that the words contained in these books will encourage youngsters everywhere to love the game as I did.

Writing children's books was something I never thought about until 2008 when I was inspired by my seven grandchildren. My goal was to leave an imprint on their lives and simply make them happy.

Through that inspiration, I came up with the stories of "Paul The Baseball," "Matt The Bat," and "Kitt The Mitt." I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them. ~ Jim Rooker
