Fantastic! March 29, 2008
A great book for encouraging girls to love sports, and show that it is OK for a girl to have a competitive drive. The pictures are full of action and excitement and make you want to get out on the field! There is a perfect amount of text per page to keep the attention of a 2.5 y.o. We are very selective about the books we buy, checking them out of the library first, and we will definitely be adding this book to our collection!
BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! February 6, 2007

I liked the illustrations. Mia quit one day and the next day she changed her mind but someone said "No, you can't play" and I think that's a good lesson. If she wants to play, she should not have quit in anger.
 Teaches good sportsmanship... July 12, 2006
The story is a favorite in our house. It's got cute pictures and a great message about being a good sport. When Mia quits she is made to sit out the next time and she realizes that it's more fun to play then to get upset about the game. It's nice that you don't know if she makes a goal at the end because it doesn't really matter if she does. What matters is that she's being a good sport.
My only remotely negative comment is minor - they use the word hate. It's not a big deal but we're working on having the kids NOT use that word so it turns into a "ummmm...she said hate..." Not a big deal at all and a good opportunity to show an appropriate way to use the word but it's there nonetheless.
Great message for little ones! July 6, 2006
My four year old twins boys love this book and really got the message of the book. They just started playing soccer and were having a difficult time enjoying themselves and didn't want to see it through. After reading them this book, they see that it's just for fun and it's just a game.
