The theme of this story is that a kid called Alfonso that would watch baseball all day. Also his dad was a baseball player. After couple of months he wanted to be just like his dad. I know this do to in the book Alfonso would always ask his dad if he could play baseball with him and that's why he likes baseball he wants to be just like his dad. The overall setting is Alfonso and his dad at home and at the park having a good time playing baseball and watching baseball. The conflict in this story is that people would doubt Alfonso. They would doubt Alfonso that he would never be like his dad and they would make fun of him. Sometimes the mood is sad do to on page 12 and 13 Alfonso’s dad went to jail. And also its sometimes happy do to before
