When Gary's father is too busy to play, a scary moment at the baseball field brings his dad rushing to the park to rescue him. But instead the two discover that making time for each other is the most important thing in a father and son relationship.
Read an excerpt:
What are your plans for today, Son?” asked Dad, putting on his coat and hat.
“Today’s the annual father and son baseball game.” Gary brightened. “Don’t you remember?”
His father abruptly stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Gary with an apologetic expression on his face.
“I’m sorry, I can’t be there. I’ve got too much work to do at the office. I’ll make it up to you, I promise.”
“Sure. That’ll be fine,” said Gary, trying not to sound too disappointed.
