Give It A Try, Zoe!
It’s spring—T-ball season! Zoe has signed up for the Sesame Street team. She’s excited about playing, but when a pick-up game doesn’t go well, she wants to quit. Her father suggests she try it anyway, and supports her when she just wants to watch during the first practice. When Zoe sees that other team members are also beginners at T-ball, she decides to give it a try. As the novice players work together, they learn that there is great value—and fun—in working hard at something new.

It has baseball, so what is there not to like?
More seriously, for a picture book based on a TV show, this is actually quite good. Naturally we have a valuable lesson to learn, i.e. "If at first you don't succeed..." But also that you can't expect to be perfect the first time you try something. I particularly enjoyed that ALL the characters had bobbles and mistakes. Minor spoiler: The lesson to learn is also that being a great player isn't a requirement for having fun.
