About the book
80 TRUE SOCCER STORIES. A NEW REASON TO PRACTICE HANDWRITING.
A referee who gave himself a red card. A dog that found a stolen trophy. A stadium built right on top of the equator.
These are just three of the 80 true soccer stories inside this print handwriting workbook for kids ages 6-9.
Read it. Trace it. Write it. Each story turns handwriting practice into a chance to discover something surprising about the game, and to find a new story to tell at dinner.
FROM FIRST LETTERS TO SOCCER STORIES
The workbook starts with individual letters, moves on to look-alike letters, numbers and soccer words, then brings those skills together in sentences about remarkable moments in soccer.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- A dedicated page for every letter, with uppercase and lowercase practice and numbered arrows showing where to start and which direction to follow.
- Practice with letters that are easy to mix up, like b and d or p and q, numbers 1 to 20, and 70 soccer words.
- 80 true soccer stories told in 160 sentences to read, trace, and copy onto handwriting lines with a dashed midline.
- Men's and women's soccer from around the world, featuring the scorpion kick, a goal scored just eleven seconds into a game, record crowds, and other surprising moments.
- A picture to color on every letter page and every story page, a player card to fill in, plus five word searches with hidden messages and answers at the back.

Frequently asked questions
What age is it for?
Kids ages 6 to 9, grades 1 to 3, who are learning or practicing print handwriting.
How does it work?
It goes step by step: first individual letters with numbered stroke arrows, then look-alike letters like b and d, numbers 1 to 20 and 70 soccer words, and finally 80 true soccer stories told in 160 sentences to read, trace and write.
How is it different from Soccer Stories in Cursive?
Both use the same 80 true stories. This one is for ages 6–9 and practices print handwriting; Soccer Stories in Cursive is for ages 8–12 and teaches cursive, so kids can write the same stories again in cursive.

Is it a good gift?
