About This Book

A lively children's tale follows Tommy Tiptop, a sturdy ten-year-old, and his friends as they form and play a neighborhood baseball team. Episodes trace Tommy's everyday adventures—moving away, a mishap, organizing the nine, game-day exploits, daring swims and fishing trips, earning money, confronting danger, and rescuing a rival—culminating in a hometown victory and reunited friendships. The loosely episodic chapters combine sports scenes, outdoor mischief, and small moral tests to highlight teamwork, courage, practical resourcefulness, and good-natured rivalry among schoolboy companions.
