The Berenstain Bears Play T-Ball (by Stan and Jan Berenstain)

4/5 = Really Liked It

Little Fox says: "I like T-Ball...I liked that they were playing tag [instead of T-ball]. That was kind of funny."

Momma: You play T-ball.  Did the kids in the book make some funny mistakes?
Fox: One ran to second base [instead of first base] and they played tag.
Momma: How did Brother and Sister Bear feel when the kids kept being silly?
Fox: Kind of frustrated.
Momma: And what did the Ump tell them to do?  He said they should teach the kids how to play.  So what did Brother and Sister do?
Fox: They showed the ball and the bat and the glove and they showed them how to bat and catch and put their mitt on the ground and catch the ball.
Momma: What advice would momma give them if I saw Brother and Sister were getting frustrated?
Fox: Don't step on your hat.
Momma:  That's true!  But what advice do I give you when I see you're getting frustrated?
Fox: Take a deep breath.
Momma: That's right.  Take a deep breath and calm down and try to be patient.
