Hank Zipzer: The Zippity Zinger by Henry Winkler January 12, 2009

Posted by jcarlson in : Humorous Fiction, School Fiction , trackback

In this book, Hank Zipzer is playing catch with his grandpa, Papa Pete, but something is different about his throwing:  instead of just falling to the ground, the ball went right into the center of Papa Pete’s mitt.  Hank was on fire, so his friends, Frankie Townstand and Ashley Wong, ask him to be on the Yellow softball team.  He says no.  Hank thinks his amazing throwing is because of his sister’s lucky monkey socks (which he accidentally put on to play catch), and his sister needs them too!  Can Hank make a comback and pitch for his team?  Read to find out!

I liked this book because it’s funny, and it has a lot of jokes in it.
