This is the second book about Sergio, who is a penguin. He's not the most graceful creature, he's not the most athletic, but he does love to play soccer. He's just not very good at it...
If you have a child having a problem in sports, I'm sure he/she will relate to this book and love reading it again and again.
Sergio has no illusions about how good a soccer player he is, but he loves playing. You see the ball bounce off him, knock him down, watch him fall over it. But he never gives up!
They decide to make him goalie, and he has to practice a lot. Then he practices some more.
But when they play the seagulls, who are much bigger and have longer legs, it's real hard work for the whole team. And it all comes down to one final play: Can Sergio, the goalie, keep that ball out of their goal post?
Young ones will want to read this one again and again. And maybe they'll play soccer, too!
