An act of kindness on the soccer field. This book is perfect for new readers. This heart-warming Level E story is perfect for readers who are gaining more confidence in their reading.

Lin kicks the ball.
They run.
They pass.

Some kids won't let May play soccer, but one boy invites her to join his team. And when he has a chance to score a winning goal, he gives up his chance and passes the ball to May. Now May can experience the joy of victory!

Level E stories feature a distinct beginning, middle, and end, with kid-friendly illustrations offering clues for more challenging sentences. Varied punctuation and simple contractions may be included. Level E books are suitable for early first graders. When Level E is mastered, follow up with Level F.

The award-winning I Like to Read(R) series focuses on guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas and Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators--including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors--create original, high-quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read again and again with their parents, teachers or on their own!

The modest story is poignant in its underlying message of inclusion and supportive friendship. Teamwork and camaraderie are strong factors in any soccer game.
