Review by Horn Book Review

It's soccer season and everyone has soccer mania. Nancy Clancy doesn't excel at the sport like her friends, but with help from her dad and best friend Bree, Nancy tries hard to improve. Filled with Nancy-isms and sweet black-and-white illustrations, this sixth chapter book explores teamwork and sportsmanship. And while the underdogs don't ultimately win, the ending is satisfying.
