Soccer School Season 1: Where Soccer Rules the World

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Spike Gerrell. With a chatty, kid-friendly tone, this lively British import teaches soccer facts and other (loosely) soccer-related information by subject area: math, physical education, psychology, and so on. A biology chapter, for example, briefly outlines the human digestion system before diving into some scatological soccer trivia, such as a British team's pre-game pooping regimen. Equally engaging are the end-of-chapter quizzes and black-and-white cartoon illustrations.
