The On Deck Circle of Life
By Dr. Harley Rotbart
Everything a child needs to know about life can be learned from the dugout steps. Every pitch, hit, and play on the baseball field is its own life lesson.
From taking charge under a pop fly, to taking risks on the base paths, to taking heart on the bench, The On Deck Circle of Life connects parents and their kids through the analogies, axioms, and allegories that baseball offers for life off the field.
Written for kids of all ages to read, and for parents to read over their kids' shoulders, this is a warm and wise playbook for the game of life.
The original inspiration that led to the new 101 Lessons From The Dugout.
