Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Lily Davis' big sister, Jana, has recently left home for basic training, and Lily really misses her soccer idol. But when Lily's parents and coach start pushing her to fill Jana's cleats, the pressure to be like the all-star striker is too much. Can Lily find the strength to be herself? With a glossary, writing prompts, discussion questions, and extra soccer info, this fast-paced Jake Maddox sports story is a win-win for both educators and students!
RL: 2-3 ; IL: 3-6
Lily Davis's big sister and star soccer player, Jana, has left home for basic training, and now Lily's parents and coach want her to change positions, from goalie to striker, wear Jana's jersey, and fill her sister's shoes--at first she goes along with the switch, until a letter from Jana gives her the courage to tell them all that she is her own person, and that person is a goalie.
