Overview

Cámeron Jones no juega al fútbol porque le encanta, sino porque su papá cree que un día obtendrá una gran recompensa: una beca universitaria. Cuando la transferencia laboral de su papá le lleva de la gran ciudad a un equipo de un pueblo pequeño, Cámeron cree que puede ser su oportunidad de alejarse del fútbol. El nuevo equipo está desorganizado y a los compañeros no parece interesarles la disciplina que se necesita para ganar. Pero quizás este nuevo equipo sea exactamente lo que Cámeron necesita para que el fútbol vuelva a resultarle divertido. Cameron Jones plays soccer not because he loves it, but because his dad believed he will one day earn a big prize: a college scholarship. When his father's job transfer takes him from the big city to a small-town team, Cameron thinks it might be his chance to take a step back from soccer. His new team is unorganized and his teammates seem uninterested in the discipline it takes to win. But maybe this new team is exactly what Cameron needs to make soccer fun again.

Author Information

Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler - or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps - literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers. Since graduating from Loughborough University School of Art and Design in 2004, Katie Wood has been a freelance illustrator. From her studio in Leicester, England, she creates bright and lively illustrations for books and magazines all over the world.
