Bedtime Story: Rosie Waits for Her Pitch
from The Reading Bug Podcast - Original Adventures, Bedtime Stories and Music for Kids · host The Reading Bug
Lauren's Little Bedtime Stories On a warm summer evening at a little league field, a nine-year-old girl named Rosie steps up to bat in the bottom of the last inning — down by one, two outs, championship on the line — and everything she's worked for comes down to a single pitch. She loves baseball with her whole heart, but she hasn't gotten a hit all season. Her grandfather Granpa Lou, a former minor leaguer, gives her the one piece of advice she's been missing: the best pitch you ever see is the one you wait for. With her sunflower-seed-eating teammate Benny cheering from the dugout and Granpa Lou still and steady in the bleachers, Rosie finally learns the difference between trying hard and being patient — and discovers that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let a pitch go by. Every Lauren's Little Bedtime Story includes: Calming Relaxation: Gentle breathing exercises to help your body relax. Original Bedtime Lullaby: Wind-down time as Lauren sings you to sleep. A Full Original Bedtime Story: A whimsical story read aloud by Lauren.
