Sinopse

In "Bobby Blake on the School Nine; Or, The Champions of the Monatook Lake League," Frank A. Warner weaves an engaging narrative that captures both the exuberance of youth and the competitive spirit of school sports. Set against the backdrop of small-town America, the book chronicles the trials and triumphs of a high school baseball team as they aspire to victory within the Monatook Lake League. Warner'Äôs crisp prose and vivid characterizations evoke a nostalgic era, blending humor and drama to create relatable yet larger-than-life characters navigating the trials of adolescence and athletics. The story serves as a microcosm of the cultural zeitgeist of the late 19th century, reflecting the societal values surrounding teamwork, perseverance, and community pride. Frank A. Warner, an astute observer of the American landscape, was deeply influenced by his own experiences in small-town life and sports. His love for baseball, which was more than just a game but a vital part of the communal identity, shines through in this narrative. Warner's personal engagement with youth sports and the dynamics of local leagues informed both the character development and plot progression, making his portrayal of Bobby Blake and his comrades authentic and engaging. This charming tale is highly recommended for readers who appreciate coming-of-age stories steeped in nostalgia and sportsmanship. Warner'Äôs novel resonates with both young readers eager for adventure and adults longing for a window into the simpler, yet profoundly rich, days of their youth. "Bobby Blake on the School Nine" is not just a story about baseball; it'Äôs a celebration of friendship, ambition, and the indomitable spirit of youth.

    Keep Your Shape by Robert Sheckley - Only a race as incredibly elastic as the Grom could have a single rule of war: Keep Your Shape 
    Pid the Pilot slowed the ship almost to a standstill, and peered anxiously at the green planet below. 
    Even without instruments, there was no mistaking it. Third from its sun, it was the only planet in this system capable of sustaining life. Peacefully it swam beneath its gauze of clouds. 
    It looked very innocent. And yet, twenty previous Grom expeditions had set out to prepare this planet for invasion—and vanished utterly, without a word. 
    Pid hesitated only a moment, before starting irrevocably down. There was no point in hovering and worrying. He and his two crewmen were as ready now as they would ever be. Their compact Displacers were stored in body pouches, inactive but ready. 
    Pid wanted to say something to his crew, but wasn't sure how to put it. 
    The crew waited. Ilg the Radioman had sent the final message to the Grom planet. Ger the Detector read sixteen dials at once, and reported, "No sign of alien activity." His body surfaces flowed carelessly. 
    Noticing the flow, Pid knew what to say to his crew. Ever since they had left Grom, shape-discipline had been disgustingly lax. The Invasion Chief had warned him; but still, he had to do something about it. It was his duty, since lower castes such as Radiomen and Detectors were notoriously prone to Shapelessness.
