REVIEW: These books are a terrific soccer resource for kids! They combine the best of world soccer along with history, geography and a glimpse at what it's like growing up as a young soccer player in another country. Soccer is truly a global language and these books help American kids speak it fluently. What a great opportunity for young soccer players to learn about their heroes and the legendary clubs of the world. These books are engaging and fun! -- Lynn Berling-Manuel, Chief Marketing Officer, American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO). Colour illustrations
