His father is a famous player in Cuba who risked everything to send his wife and infant son to America for a better life. Felix pins his hopes on meeting his dad someday and getting to know him better because his mother won't tell him much. Felix attends his first minor league game but his good time is ruined by his babysitter and her friends. Angrily he ditches the babysitter and sneaks into the locker room where the visiting team mistakes him for the new batboy. He doesn't deny it as this is his opportunity to find out if the Dominican player knows his dad. He stows away on the team bus and the next day happily but cautiously serves as the batboy until his guise is uncovered by a reporter and the team manager. Felix's mother arrives and tells him the whole story of their escape from Cuba and his father will never come to Florida. An entertaining package of sport, history and mystery; Felix is a likable and real character. A mistaken identity gives 11-year-old Felix Piloto the opportunity to learn more about the father he never knew. All Felix’s mother ever told him was that his father, a Cuban superstar baseball player, risked his life to get Felix and his mother to America. Now, a visiting baseball team believes Felix is their batboy, and he’s using the confusion to hang out with real players and see what he can discover about his father. Appropriate for grades 4-6. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
