Silence in Center is part of the Softball Star series, inspiring stories about girls who love playing softball and baseball. 14-year-old Melody Gold is a fastpitch player who wants to make the move from Little League to Select Ball, but none of the coaches want her on their teams because she has a hearing impairment and must wear hearing aids at all times, even during games. Melody is unwilling to take no for an answer, and against the odds she leads her team to the championship game. An inspiring story for ages 10+.
