Character analysis paragraph

In the book, The Boy Who Saved Baseball, I liked Tom the best.  He was the main character and a really i liked that he did not want to quit—no matter what. One example of this is when he goes to see Delgado. Tom went through the mountains on horseback to go see Del Gato. He did not give up  Del Gato came to coach the team. He also helped improve Cruze video game the video game also helped the teams hitting better and helped the team see the ball moving and where the ball spinning. Finally, after Cruz left, he was scared but he led the team to victory.

My theme for the book Home plate Heist getting support from friends and family can help a person regain confidence. First of all his family helped him regain confidence by cheering for him in the game. I know when I hear someone cheering for me it helps me hit better. Another good example is when his family teaches him how to steal bases. Every night after school his family teaches Fernando how to steal bases.  My final example is the next day Fernando’s team play the yellow jackets and Fernando gets on base, then he watches the pitcher and waits for the right moment to steal the base, and he steals the base. To me this shows how  Fernando regained his confidence. The following evidence of cheering on a person, practicing, and stealing bases clearly shows that Fernando regains his confidence.

I think Lonnie's writing is cool and fascinating and this poem inspired many people around the world. My first piece of evidence is when Miss Marcus says that there were many black Poets that inspired people. Another piece of evidence is on pg 79 Miss Marcus becomes a teacher of the year, Lonnie gets to read the poetry for the newspaper
