  A must-have book to reap major-league benefits! 
  What’s The Endgame is a guidebook designed to help families navigate youth baseball, written by former All-American outfielder at Kansas State University and professional baseball player Sean Collins, who was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in 1989. 
  This book is packed with over three decades of wisdom to help young ballplayers maximize their baseball dreams and guide parents through the journey, including: 
  ● Insights on the types of levels that are appropriate 
  ● Clearly defining their ballplayer’s role 
  ● Recognizing expectations going into a season 
  ● Principles that have helped ballplayers 
  What's the Endgame provides one-of-a-kind insights on how to pursue a baseball career, whether it’s playing for a major college baseball program or making it to big-league stadiums. 
  A note from Coach Collins: “I wish I had this book in my life when I was pursuing my baseball dreams. I had a lot of success, but there were also many mistakes made because I did not have anyone in my life early on who had the experience and know-how that could help me. That's what What’s the Endgame is designed to be. Readers will be able to define an endgame for their child’s journey from practice to team ball, and much more. Parents will be able to define the ‘why’ of what they are doing.” 
  Readers should look at this book as if they are the hardware and the information in this book is the software—a guidebook to keep handy. Let my years of successes, pain, and suffering be your guide as you help your young ballplayer chase their dreams.

  The Crystal Man

  The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell - Before H.G. Wells imagined the Invisible Man, Edward Page Mitchell made him vanish. Discover the original tale of unseen horror and scientific wonder—The Crystal Man. 
  Edward Page Mitchell (1852–1927) was a pioneering yet often overlooked figure in early science fiction. A journalist, editor, and short story writer, Mitchell worked for The New York Sun, where many of his speculative tales first appeared anonymously in the late 19th century. His work, rediscovered decades later, revealed astonishing foresight—anticipating concepts like invisibility, faster-than-light travel, time machines, artificial intelligence, and even teleportation, all before these ideas were popularized by H.G. Wells or Jules Verne. 
  Mitchell never collected his stories in his lifetime and published them without fanfare, contributing to his obscurity. But modern scholars now recognize him as one of the founding voices of American science fiction. His stories, including The Crystal Man, The Tachypomp, and The Man Without a Body, blend scientific imagination with a journalistic touch, often exploring the ethical and emotional consequences of advanced technology. 
  Though largely forgotten in his era, Edward Page Mitchell’s legacy lives on as a visionary who helped shape the genre before it even had a name.
