Response

For my response I am doing summaries of some characters.

Nick Crandall

Nick Crandall: Nick was adopted at the age of 9. He really loves baseball. He is the catcher for the JV Hayworth Tigers. But he gets the opportunity of a lifetime. In the 7th grade he gets called up to play for the Varsity team because their catcher, Bobby Mazzilli, broke his arm.

Gracie Wright

Gracie Wright: Gracie is one of Nick’s best friends. She lives across the street from Nick. She almost stays at the Crandall’s house more than her own. She always helps Nick with things.

Mrs. Crandall

Mrs. Crandall: Is Nick’s mom that was the one that adopted Nick. She is a math professor. So she is always telling Nick you should always do your homework first. Especially math. She is not a sports fan but she tries to learn about sports for Nick.

Mr. Crandall

Mr. Crandall: Also is one of the people that adopted Nick. He is a professor in English. So he is also telling Nick to do his homework. Especially English. He will sometimes help Nick with his English homework. He is not a big sports fan but tries to watch it for Nick
