That's Not How You Play Soccer, Daddy!

32 pp. | Peachtree | September, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-1-56145-416-7 $15.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tatjana Mai-Wyss. At soccer practice Mikey goes for the ball with gusto, "rat-a-tat-tack-ing" it, while his distracted teammates twirl around or look at anthills. "We have to win, win, WIN!" Mikey tells Dad, but Dad goofs off, too, ignoring the rules. The playful language and mellow sports-should-be-fun message are well matched by watercolor and collage scenes showing the silly chaos of peewee soccer.
