Dirt on Their Skirts: The Story of the Young Women who Won the World Championship

Doreen Rappaport (2000), 32 pages
Illustrated by E. B. Lewis
Audience: 2nd Grade - 4th Grade
This play-by-play account of the final moments of the championship game of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League in 1946 captures the excitement of this moment in baseball history. The content of the game is recreated from historical sources and told through the eyes of a young fan of the league, with many color illustrations as well as photographs of the players. Sit on the edge of your seat with Margaret and her family as the game proves that, 'You have to be tough to play baseball in a skirt.'
