Trish loves to play softball, but her parents don’t seem to care about her interests. When an opportunity comes up for Trish to take her game to another level, she’s faced with a choice – play softball or continue with the orchestra. If the decision was left up to her parents, softball wouldn’t even be considered.

Taking matters into her own hands, Trish tries out for the Lady Tigers. But in the process of making her choice, she needs to be dishonest – something that even her new friend sees is wrong. Will Trish’s actions hurt her and the team?

Trish’s Team reinforces the fact that actions have consequences, as Trish discovers when the truth is finally revealed. But it also demonstrates that kids have opinions too, and good parents take time to listen, even if what their kids say makes them uncomfortable. Girls who love sports will relate to Trish’s dilemma and cheer for her to make the right choices.

How to Request a Review

Over 1,000 books reviewed!

We’re taking a short summer hiatus, but we’ll be back soon!

If you’d like to have your book reviewed, please contact us at the following email addresses with a synopsis of your book. Please use the subject header “Review Requested: Title of your book” so your request doesn’t go to our spam folder. Don’t send a file copy of your book as an attachment – it will not be read. We do not promote any crowd funding campaigns. We only review print books. No e-books or electronic copies of any kind will be considered.

We normally only respond if we’re accepting your book. Follow-ups can be made after two weeks to be sure we’ve received your email. If we don’t respond at that time, you can assume we’re not interested. Once we have agreed to review your book, we will provide a mailing address.

Outdoors and nature books, especially Christian focused.

Cozy mysteries, Christian fiction / non-fiction, and motivational / inspirational audio programs and music. I am a conservative Catholic, so please don’t ask me to review anything that runs counter to my faith.

Due to the large volume of requests we receive, we may not be able to fit your book into our schedule. We are only two people, so if we do accept your book, please anticipate at least a six month wait for your review to be posted–we follow a “first-in, first-out” schedule. We have day jobs, too, and this is a free service we offer to authors.

Acceptance of your book does not guarantee a review. At this time, we will consider self-published works on very limited basis, and only if they are accompanied by a favorable and trustworthy review.

For a complete listing of all books reviewed, please see the Catalog. All books featured on this site have been provided free of charge to the reviewer.
