From the Inside Flap
Safe at Home is a heartwarming story about Trevor, an 11-year-old boy whose aged great-grandfather gives him a 1915 Babe Ruth baseball card valued at $50,000. Trevor's joy is threatened by the mysterious disappearance of the card and by his friends' skepticism about great-grandpa's claim of being the only man in baseball history to steal home off Babe Ruth. Eventually Trevor learns some priceless lessons about friendship, truth and forgiveness.
