I read this to a class of third graders and they were fascinated and asked so many questions afterwards. The writing style is lyrical and captures the emotion of Messi's journey, while the images are vibrant and appealing. For die-hard soccer fans the end pages are packed with extra facts, but this story of resilience and overcoming challenges will appeal to most kids.
Good Points
