Dirt On Their Skirts

This is the story of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, told in the excited, eager voice of a young fan who longs to be among their number. Margaret watches every move that her heroines make with joy, from Betty "Moe" Trezza to Sophie "The Flash" Kurys. Infused with the energy of the era and the power of inspiration for young girls who love to play ball as much as the boys do, Dirt on Their Skirts is an invaluable look at how women managed to claim a corner of the revered diamond for themselves. Written by Doreen Rappaport and Lyndall Callan and illustrated by E.B. Lewis, this historical fiction offers even more inspiration and a chance to remember with a chunk of archival photos.
