  3. Free Baseball • During the story, Felix becomes the bat boy for The Miracle • Throughout the story he learns about his Dad who plays in Cuba which is why he feels close to the team. • Felix becomes with the mascot named Homer who is a golden retriever.

  5. Free Baseball • The character I can identify with is Felix because we both like baseball. • My favorite part of the book was when Felix and his mom moved with the team when she got the job. • The book had a happy ending even though he didn’t find his Dad.
