This pre-teen (Ages: 9-12) book involves the game of soccer and making right choices. The protagonist is Lucy, a motherless girl with a super father who needs to go to a six-week school for the blind. To do this, Aunt Karen is coming in to be the adult in the house--a decision Lucy doesn't like.

Rianna, the antagonist, employs dirty tricks to win which makes cheating and "flopping" topics of soccer camp. Add to that all the drama a group of girls can produce, and the reader has a good read. Soccer fans will especially like this book.

Just as before with the previous Lucy book, I quickly realized that this was for kids younger than myself, but after reading the first Lucy novel, I fell in love with Lucy and her thoughts and ideas. Nancy Rue made this book not only good for children but good for teens as well.

There was certainly things that Lucy learned that summer that I needed a crash course in as well.

Great for your girls and maybe your boys. I say, for your little bookworm, get them this for Christmas.

My daughter has read 1 through 4 and she wants more! she loves the Lucy books. She plays socer and can relate. A must buy for this age girl. Her quote, "Mom these are the best books ever!"

My 13 year old read this very quickly, and thought it was great! Nice to have fiction that promotes the sames values we teach at home
