Beverly is thrilled to finally check out a book with her own library card, but when she accidentally keeps the book too long she worries that she'll have to pay a huge fine or go to jail.
When Beverly and Oliver, who do well in school but not on the softball field, set out to become better players they get some pointers from their favorite librarian and spend a lot of time practicing.
Beverly runs into a problem while making the "caramel candy castle cake" for Oliver's party, but her creativity and her mother's encouragement save the day.
