The South Orange River (S.O.R.) School has a great
reputation in sports, to the point where they’ve never lost a game this season. That winning record is about to change,
however, when some non-sporting kids decide to form SOR’s first soccer team. When their overeager parents force the team
to continue on after their first blowout loss, the kids rack up an impressive
losing record that only serves to bring these misfits closer together!
Growing up, I read a ton of sports books by awesome authors
like Matt Christopher. While these books
were great, most of them were usually about talented kids who excelled on the
playing field. Avi’s book is much
different, because it shows that sports can still be beneficial for those of us
who weren’t blessed with a ton of athletic ability. Be sure to pick up a copy of this classic,
and I guarantee you’ll be laughing out loud until the final whistle!
