Description - Shots On Goal by Rich Wallace
With bright, action-oriented new paperback covers, Rich Wallace's four books now have a cohesive look, and we hope to increase his share of the YA sports market. His books deliver--they're both commercial and literary--and Wallace stands poised to become a premier name in the YA world, particularly in the arena of sports writing for teenaged guys. His prose is spare and accessible--an excellent choice for reluctant readers.
It's soccer season, and sophomore Bones Austin and his team are struggling to make it to the district play-offs--against all odds. To make matters worse, Bones has a crush on the girlfriend of his best friend, Joey. Bones and Joey are forced to learn a little something about teamwork, even when hard times seem to be tearing them apart. Rich Wallace returns to Sturbridge, Pennsylvania, in his stunning follow-up to Wreslting Strubirdge, in Knopf Paperback for the first time.
