BIO Kevin Christofora, a father and certified coach, hopes his book series, The Hometown All Stars, will inspire children to play outside more often.

MISSION STATEMENT Most parents today know very little about baseball. Unlike previous generations, they don't have a lot to pass on to their children, and most kids today know more about Angry Birds than they do about America's National Pastime. It's a different world, and today's kids have lost touch with the game. Kids don't play outside much, and the sandlot's turned into a parking lot. Baseball's getting lost. The Hometown All Stars Book series, written for children ages 3-6, is on a mission to spread the idea of "Less Screen, More Green" and increase the interest in baseball with today's younger generations, while building character, teamwork skills and re-enforcing many of life's important lessons - including the most important one - TO HAVE FUN! WHY CHOOSE THE HOMETOWN ALL STARS BOOKS? As a coach, I see kids showing up at their first practice not knowing what home plate is. They don't even know which direction to run! The Hometown All Stars series helps children learn beginning sports skills with real life coaching techniques, combined with an educational and FUN storyline. The books encourage kids to get out of the house and get moving, giving them (and their parents) the tools to do so with confidence. Besides the obvious benefits of physical activity, The Hometown All Stars series includes important concepts like sportsmanship, leadership, playing by the rules, motivation, winning and losing, teamwork, strategy and more, helping to re-enforce many important life lessons. Give your children a head start on the field and off with The Hometown All Stars. It all starts with a bedtime story!
