"I have my ball, and my cleats," begins a boy preparing for his first soccer game. The simple text presents a positive experience with an emphasis on teamwork and sportsmanship. The age-appropriate format features crisp photographs on a white background, enhanced with occasional illustrations. Soccer vocabulary--ball, cleats, dribble, pass--appear in bold blue letters.
