That's exactly what eleven-year-old Norm finds out when he loses his left hand in an accident at his family's store. It's July 4, 1946. World War II has ended, and life is getting back to normal. But for Norm, the pressing question now is whether he will ever be able to play baseball again. And what about his dreams of becoming an artist? Norm can't even figure out how to tie his shoes anymore. How will he ever learn how to pitch or catch or swing a bat with no left hand? It's up to Norm to find the strength to get beyond this roadblock and move on with his life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Square Fish\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/03\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312535759\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.68h x 5.22w x 0.72d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Maud Hart Lovelace Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Caudill Young Readers Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e109088 \/ One-Handed Catch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.2 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 8\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Mj Auch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43600173793461,"sku":"9780312535759","price":13.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_2a83c608-e8ba-4295-943d-b5613085e04d.jpg?v=1707205322","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/one-handed-catch-9780312535759","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
