Synopsis

Nancy Clancy hits the soccer field in New York Times bestselling team Jane O’Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser’s sixth Nancy Clancy chapter book.

Normally, Nancy Clancy doesn’t like dressing like everyone else. But wearing a soccer team uniform—well, that’s different!

Nancy adores being on the Green Goblins. She loves cheering for her teammates, sharing refreshments, and painting her fingernails bright green before every game. If only she wasn’t cursed with slow legs! All Nancy wants is to be mediocre—or maybe even a little better than average. Will she reach her goal?

Written with plenty of humor and sports action, this story is perfect for kids like Nancy who aren’t the stars of their teams.

What happens when your biggest goal is just to be average?

• Not an All-Star Player: Nancy Clancy doesn’t need to be the MVP. She just wants to be mediocre! This is a story for every kid who knows that having fun is more important than winning.
• Teamwork and Friendship: From cheering for her teammates on the Green Goblins to sharing post-game snacks, Nancy learns that the best part of soccer is being on a team with your friends.
• Funny Kids Book: Laugh out loud as Nancy deals with her “slow legs,” a hilarious team mascot, and accidentally stopping a ball—with her face!
• Vocabulary Building Fun: Just like in all her adventures, Nancy introduces superb synonyms and fancy words, making this a perfect early chapter book for growing readers.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Jane O’Connor was born and raised in the fabulous metropolis of New York City. That’s where she still lives with her husband, Jim, although both their grown sons did something unfathomable (that means impossible to understand). They moved to the West Coast! Besides writing the Fancy Nancy series and other books for children, Jane spent her whole career as an editor at major publishing houses. Recently retired, she finds herself with something she never had before—free time to do whatever she pleases.

Robin Preiss Glasser has illustrated many acclaimed picture books, including the bestselling Fancy Nancy series, Lambslide, Escape Goat, and Grand Jeté and Me: A Christmas Holiday Book for Kids. She won the Children’s Choice Award for Best Illustrator of the Year for Fancy Nancy and the Mermaid Ballet. Robin actually wore tiaras and tutus when she danced with the Pennsylvania Ballet. Now she happily spends her days in jeans, drawing. Robin and her family live in Southern California.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Nancy Clancy loves playing on her soccer team, the Green Goblins. Even though she's not the best player on the team, she's happy just being average—after all, it's her goal to be mediocre. But in the last game of the season, with only a few minutes left on the clock, a surprising encounter on the field causes Nancy to make an incredible play. Will Nancy help bring the Green Goblins to victory and prove, against all odds, that maybe she's not such a bad player?
