Noah Murphy dreams of being a professional soccer
player more than anything! He works hard and is an all-around talented player.
He hopes to be scouted to be a professional soccer player and to be able to
help his father come back home again. After a fight on the field leads to him
being kicked off the team, his hopes are dashed. Not only does Noah have to
fight for his desire to be a professional soccer player, he also dreams to live
up to his late mother's nickname, The Mighty Dynamo, for him.
This book is full
of soccer as well as deep emotion. The devoted sports fan will enjoy this read,
although there's a great deal soccer content for those that aren't into sports
as much.
