The Young Conquerors Series Finding Alan Treadwell Chapter 2 MAYBE . . .

Alan Treadwell's cousin Hannah has been coming over every afternoon since the start of Summer. Unfortunately, she only wants to play Hide and Seek and Alan has had enough. His only interest is the baseball game going on across the street. Tired of being ignored, Hannah promises she is never coming back. On the one hand, Alan is glad she is gone, while on the other hand he realizes he now has no one to talk to. Attempting to change Hannah's mind, he finds out he is too late. Looking at the fence surrounding his backyard he understands it is the fence keeping him safe from Jimmy Fishburn, but it is his fear of Jimmy that keeps him away from baseball that he loves.
