Katie, Batter Up! The Graphic Novel

Ages 8 to 12, Grades 3 to 7

The bestselling Cupcake Diaries series is now available in graphic novel format! In this adaptation of the fifth book, Katie tries out for the softball team.

Katie’s Cupcake Club friends all have other activities besides making cupcakes. So Katie sets out to find her extracurricular niche. When Katie makes the softball team, it’s batter up…but is this the kind of batter Katie really wants to be dealing with? What if she makes a mistake and her team loses? By stepping up to the plate, Katie realizes that doing what you love always makes the batter sweeter.

Fun, bright, full-color graphic panels tell the story with the same humor and heart as the original novel.

About the Author

From cupcakes to ice cream and donuts! When she’s not daydreaming about yummy snacks, Coco Simon edits children’s books and has written close to one hundred books for children, tweens, and young adults, which is a lot less than the number of cupcakes, ice cream cones, and donuts she’s eaten. She is the author of the Cupcake Diaries, the Sprinkle Sundays, and the Donut Dreams series. Her newest series is Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch.
