Fast Pitch
批評家のレビュー
"Books like Fast Pitch are welcome evidence that writers for young readers are continuing to move beyond narratives in which the primary problem is a character’s marginalization." (The New York Times)
"Black girl magic hits a home run in Stone's latest novel." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
"Tensions are high as the plot bounces between gameplay and sleuthing, ultimately reaching a satisfying conclusion.... Readers of all ages will cheer for Shenice." (Booklist)
あらすじ・解説
From number one New York Times best-selling author Nic Stone comes a challenging and heartwarming coming-of-age story about a softball player looking to prove herself on and off the field.
Shenice Lockwood, captain of the Fulton Firebirds, is hyper-focused when she steps up to the plate. Nothing can stop her from leading her team to the U12 fast-pitch softball regional championship. But life has thrown some curveballs her way.
Strike one: As the sole team of all-brown faces, Shenice and the Firebirds have to work twice as hard to prove that Black girls belong at bat.
Strike two: Shenice’s focus gets shaken when her great-uncle Jack reveals that a career-ending - and family-name-ruining - crime may have been a setup.
Strike three: Broken focus means mistakes on the field. And Shenice’s teammates are beginning to wonder if she’s captain-qualified.
It's up to Shenice to discover the truth about her family’s past - and fast - before secrets take the Firebirds out of the game forever.
