Catch

Baseball has brought families together for generations, but what happens when a son no longer has time for a catch with his dad? Catch, a children's book written by D.C. Swanson and featuring the scratchboard illustrations of Clint Hansen, follows the story of a family as they learn about love, patience, regret, and renewal through the baseball catches they have with one another and the catches they never got to have. Catch will remind families who watch a young little leaguer grow up and leave the park behind that some memorable family moments are worth waiting for. Written in rhyming verse for children aged 5-10 and their families, Catch is Swanson and Hansen's second children's book. "A beautiful and moving ode to a parent's love and the unbreakable bonds between children and parents." -Sylvia Liu, award-winning picture book and middle grade author
