Description

It is 2003, and Molly Sunshine is a young girl with a dream buried deep within her soula dream that most consider impossible to achieve. She wants to be the first woman to play major league baseball. As she matures from an idealistic girl into a tenacious twelve-year-old, Molly embarks on a daring journey to break the barrier to traditional thinking. Although her talent is obvious, Mollys struggles are monumental as she begins to threaten the sanctity of a national pastimeboth run and played by men. When she adds her name to a list to try out for the boys junior high baseball team, Molly must rely on unwavering support from her loving father as she challenges over one hundred years of history and attempts to make a name for herself in the world of baseball. But what no one knows is that Molly has a plan. Now only time will tell if she can execute it, despite seemingly insurmountable odds, an unexpected tragedy, and the powers behind a male-dominated sport determined to keep it that way. Molly Sunshine shares the tale of a teenagers inspirational march to transform gender barriers and become the first female professional baseball player.
