Soccer Showdown

by John Danakas

Lizzie has just been named captain of the soccer team - the boys' soccer team, that is.  She never dreamed anything like this would happen when she asked if the boys and girls could play on the same team.

Lizzie's just been named captain of the soccer team -- the boys' soccer team -- but some of her teammates aren't playing nice. Will it be boys vs. girls forever, or can Lizzie think of a way to settle the score, once and for all?

Lizzie's Soccer Showdown is the story of a strong young woman who, when faced with prejudice, reacts with grace under pressure.
