Recent release "Billy the Blue-Stitched Baseball," from Page Publishing author John W.

PEACHTREE CORNERS, Ga., Oct. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- John W. Scafetta, a longtime sports journalist (formerly of the Orange County Register, Las Vegas Review-Journal, and others), has completed his first children's book, "Billy the Blue-Stitched Baseball." This timeless tale of dreaming big showcases the value of standing tall against naysayers and staying true to oneself.
Published by Page Publishing, Scafetta's endearing tale, set to the backdrop of America's national pastime, teaches young readers the ultimate lesson that passion wins over fear.
The story follows Billy, a budding young baseball, who was crafted in the factory years ago with blue stitches instead of the standard regulation red laces. Undeterred by what others perceive to be his shortcomings, his passion and love for the game grows with the guidance of his wise grandfather. Billy's relentless enthusiasm overshadows any ill feelings he may have had over his appearance, and he continues to dream of his place on the team.
Despite his teammates constantly mocking Billy for his blue stitches, his grandfather's words of wisdom resonate as his love for the game continues to grows. When Billy finally receives the long-awaited call into the game, the batter connects for a homerun on the first pitch. At that moment, Billy realizes his patience and kindness have paid off. More important than fitting in is celebrating one's unique qualities and staying true to oneself.
Readers who wish to experience this inspirational work can purchase "Billy the Blue-Stitched Baseball" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
