MUDVILLE by Kurtis Scaletta

This book was about a boy named Roy and he lives in a town and the special about this town is that it has been raining for 22 years. One day, when Roy came back from school, a foster kid named Sturgis is on the couch. After 3 days of Sturgis being in mudville the rain stops.Nobody can explain what happened. Sinister Bend was the last team they played and after 22 years, it is time for a rematch.

My favorite part was when it stopped raining in mudville

I would recommend this book to boys 8-12

This book in my opinion is ****

 I would recommend this book to both boys and girls ages 10-12 .
 I rate this book *** stars.
