Description

Katie’s Cupcake Club friends all have other activities besides making cupcakes: Mia and Alexis are on the soccer team, and Emma plays the flute. Katie sets out to find her extracurricular niche and soon she’s dribbling, passing, and catching in an effort to find the right sport for her. When Katie tries out and makes the softball team, she gets nervous during games, questioning if she can handle the pressure. Katie starts to figure out that doing what you love always makes the batter sweeter.
