Every generation or so, a team comes along whose march toward victory is so improbable that you can't help but root them along. The 1950 Philadelphia Phillies was that kind of team; young and spirited, the Whiz Kids played a raw, emotional brand of baseball, nipping the Brooklyn Dodgers on the final day of the season to bring the National League's perennial doormat its first title in 35 years. Hall-of-Fame member Robin Roberts, the team's ace starter, peppers his recollections with snippets of oral history from his teammates to produce a book as lively as the team itself.--

ABSURDITY WARNING Dear Courageous Reader, Warning: this story contains dangerous amounts of satire, political rivalries, and human stupidity! Expect delusional leaders, brainwashed followers, spoon fights, head butting (with and without spoon helmets), the infamous large-hand rules, and in general, an entire nation of schools in complete chaos. If you are hoping for a cozy, heart warming or sappy romance, this is definitely not the story for you. But for the brave and curious, dive in—you might just discover some hidden truths buried in the madness. Beware, though: side effects may include uncontrollable laughter, confusion, outrage, or an overwhelming urge to question everything you thought you knew about wildly dysfunctional schools. And don’t forget your spoon helmet—you’ll need it. Spoons up! Heigi hooga! W.T. Kosmos Paradox, USA, Earth, Milky Way Finalist of the 2023 Mark Twain Book Award for Humor / Satire. "Gloriously absurd... delightfully funny." — Kirkus Reviews
