About This Book
Twelve-year-old Luke who never got a chance to know his father, is convinced that he can follow in his footsteps as a great soccer player, but he finds that success takes more than good genes. He can't even afford a ball. His dreams of becoming a great soccer star seem impossible — unless he finds the courage to make them come true.
When Paul, a star soccer player, challenges Luke to a game, Luke must apologize to the new girl in school, hoping she'll teach him how to play.
