Kathryn Johnston by Heather Lang
In 1950, Kathryn Johnston wanted to play Little League baseball, but an unwritten rule kept girls from trying out. So she cut off her hair and tried out as a boy under the nickname Tubby. She made the team--and changed Little League forever. This is a story about wanting to do something so badly, you're willing to break the rules, and how breaking those rules can lead to change.Heather Lang is the author of the Amelia Bloomer Book List selections The Original Cowgirl: Lucille Mulhall's Wild Adventures and Queen of the Track: Alice Coachman, Olympic High-Jump Champion.
