(4) K-3 Illustrated by Carol Thompson. This picture-book anecdote relates how soccer player extraordinaire Mia Hamm learned that playing is more important than winning--but her "don't quit" message comes through a little too loud and clear. Energetic illustrations show a spunky young Mia wearing cleats and sporting a ponytail. The final pages include photographs of Mia playing soccer as a child and as a professional athlete.
