The delightful color illustrations in this book complement an easy-to-read text that describes the game of soccer for younger children who want to learn. The game's rules are explained in language children can readily understand, and tips are given on correct dress and proper shoes to wear when playing. Kids are advised on warm-up exercises, and then on techniques for ball control during a game. They are made aware that soccer--known outside America as football--is a team sport that encourages cooperation among the children who play. Filled with color illustrations.
