Baseball for Breakfast — Bill Myers

In this picture book from Bill Myers, author of The Incredible Worlds of Wally McDoogle series, Jimmy finds a magic pocket watch that lets him skip ahead in time. Maybe a week, a day or just until the end of class or until it's his turn up to bat again.

Soon, however, he discovers the wisdom of God's Plan for us to experience not just the good times, but the bad times, and especially the in-between times.
