This novel features a resilient but lonely, young girl who accepts the responsibilities of raising her brother in the absence of their parents.

Casey at the Bat
Morse has reinvented the poem, Casey at the Bat, through strong visuals. Casey (a.k.a. KC) is a swaggering, cool young man and his Mudville 9 are a group of multiracial, inner-city kids who play ball. The ball ground is an urban jungle of chain link fences, concrete buildings and graffiti-covered walls. Morse stays true to the poem's spirit by the images of intensity, emotion and drama felt during the ball game.
