About book Soccer Halfback (1985)

soccer half back is about a boy who can't decide which sport he wants to end up playing. He is tied between football and soccer and he doesn't know what he is going to keep on playing throughout High school and college. He decides to play soccer because he realizes that he is a natural and he has the most fun playing it. I can connect this book to a lot of athletes across the world who might be moving on to college and don't know weather to try really hard to get a scholarship in soccer but enjoy football more. It is a life changing decision that a lot of sports players had to make. I can also connect this book to Wistle! because both books are bout soccer I would recommend this book to a any kid who loves sports. It is a real life situation that kids have to make and it might inspire a kid to go out and play sports or want to play soccer.

tIn this book entitled “Soccer Half Back” written by Matt Cristopher a boy named jabber is in a conflict of chusing to play soccer instead of football. His mom wants jabber to play football because there dad played professional football and his brother also plays football. On the other hand the only person in his family that supports his choices of playing soccer is his sister. Also jabber’s uncle wants him to play football. But towards the end of the story his family finally supports his choice and motivates him to keep on playing soccer because as jabber’s brother said he was a natural at soccer. In conclusion, if you really know a lot about soccer i dont think you would like it because first i didn’t like it and the SOCCER vocabulary is not really good. For example there is quarters instead of halfs.
