What to Expect: Soccer, confidence, sportsmanship, determination, social-emotional learning.
The two books in this collection complement each other perfectly, offering the real-life stories needed to inspire young players and the tools they need to develop their growth mindset.
What makes a great soccer player great? In this collection, you can find the answer through two engaging books. In the first book, friends Max and Emily overcome their fears about whether they can forge great soccer careers by exploring the life stories of four famous players: Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappe, and Alex Morgan. Focusing on these players’ resilience, determination, skill, and perseverance, the two friends come to see that they can achieve anything they want if they’re willing to work hard for it.
But how to work hard? The second book in the collection provides the most critical tools needed: affirmations and strategies for building a perspective of positivity, growth, and self-belief so you can be just as motivated as the great players!
The players featured in the first book are diverse and well-rounded, with enough soccer flair to keep kids hooked to the story, but also demonstrating important values such as sportsmanship, generosity, and kindness. The quizzes and activities not only allow readers to interact with the material but also help in building both literacy skills and enthusiasm for the sport. The second book begins with clear instructions for using the workbook practically, including how to incorporate the activities into teamwork. The affirmations are organized into categories for easy use, and self-reflection questions, scenario-based challenges, and goal-setting activities lead readers through the deeper work of developing resilience and self-belief. The volume also includes plenty of prompts and guidance for improving playing skills.
Inspirational Soccer Book for Kids Compilation is a practical and inspiring book for any reader who loves soccer and wants to improve their playing.
