Grade 1-3-- The squabbling grandmothers who appeared in McCully's The Grandma Mix-Up (1988) and Grandmas at the Lake (1990, both HarperCollins) here agree to fill in as substitute coaches for Pip's Little League team. The pair have plenty of ideas about conducting a practice, but are both disappointed when the Stings strongly suggest that they sit on the bench and watch. At the big game the following Saturday, the Grandmas figure out how to get a piece of the action--as cheerleaders. They yell and wave pompoms and their confidence in the team inspires a comeback victory as the Stings win the game "for the grandmas." The illustrations present humorous images of two very different women; Grandma Sal is cozy and homespun, while Grandma Nan is slim and stylish. The only thing this unlikely duo ever agree upon is their unflagging affection for their granddaughter. An easy-reading sports story with bright, appealing artwork and a lot of spirit.
