Product Description
From School Library Journal
Grade 2-4-This well-written series successfully combines soccer action with good sportsmanship and family values. The characters seem like real people with flaws and problems. Hat Trick focuses on Stookie Norris, who desperately tries to score three goals in every game after his older brother is featured in the local paper for doing just that-scoring a hat trick. Only his shots matter to him because the more he takes, the more likely he is to achieve his goal. It takes a wise coach and a good friend to make Stookie into a team player. In Secret Weapon, Lisa is self-conscious because she is short, which makes it difficult for her to make a throw-in. When her coach discovers that she has gymnastic ability, he encourages her to work on a secret-weapon flip throw that helps her team gain points. One black-and-white ink illustration appears in each chapter. Facial expressions convey the characters' emotions and pictures of the field action capture the excitement of the games.

Book Description
Lisa Gaddy is a starting fullback for the 'Cats, and she plays her position well - except for one thing. Her throw-ins from the sidelines don't go very far. Sometimes the ball winds up landing in front of an opponent instead of a team mate. Unless she grows before the season ends, there doesn't seem to be any way she will improve. Or is there? The coach has an idea to turn Lisa's throw-ins into the "Cats" secret weapon.
