    About this ebook

    Latchkey kid Jerry Johnson lives for soccer. He plans to be a soccer star/sports hero and needs to practice soccer as much as he can out of season. In his neighborhood the first kid to the playground chooses the game for the day. Jerry is always first until he gets phone calls from a latchkey first-grader who is afraid of bears and has problems with her school projects that she enlists him to help her solve such as how many humps a camel has. “…Camels have to have the same number of humps. One or Two? Which is it?” He is late to the playground because of this girl and his problems begin to pile up. Jerry is on the line between the first-grader and his game. He must solve this dilemma without hurting her or giving up his soccer.
