Is there anything Madeline can't do? Perhaps she can't stay out of trouble. In Madeline the Soccer Star Madeline and the girls try their hands or feet rather, at soccer. Miss Clavell is impressed by everyone's skill and dedication. But Madeline takes a special shine to the sport and excels above the rest. This story is great for teaching perseverance and tenacity with a funny little story. And its not very often you get to see young girls playing sports. This one may also be great to encourage girls to try out! ~ Amy Lewis, Rovi
