Sports Stories series.
Hockey MVP Adam Burnett moves to Vancouver and tries out for an elite hockey team--but he's introduced to soccer through his new school friend, Rodrigo. Adam loves his new sport but must hide it from his controlling father, who is banking on his son's hockey future. Despite flat characters, the pace moves quickly and the sports action is exciting.

Sports Stories series.
Each fast-paced book uses a specific sport to center its protagonist. In Dogs, Noah battles a rock-climbing rival and preoccupied dad. In Man, Michael must overcome his small size to contribute to the lacrosse team. In Goals, Vicky tackles the challenges of a new school and soccer team. While the stories are formulaic, the accessible texts are sparked by engaging characters. Glos. Review covers these Sports Stories titles: Rock Dogs, Trading Goals, and Man-to-Man.
