Wow Leo and his friend in Middleton are having a great
summer when he gets a call from Samantha offering Leo a opportunity to try out
to play for the USA junior national team in the Cup of nations (like the World
Cup but for the developmental teams. The USA team is ranked last and only are in
it because the USA is the host nation. Will
this be the case or will the team rise to the challenge?
Now by this point you should know I love this series. I like the real obstacles Leo and his friends
need to get past and might even need to trust or talk to another player to get
through. These kids have had to grow up
much faster as they are often in different countries, and spend a lot of their
time without their parents or coaches.
Leo is lucky to have friends back home that are great and just a text
away for him as well as his dad and Messi.
This is a great series and is a fun read for everyone, old and young but
especially anyone who likes soccer (football).
