About this ebook
This ebook includes audio narration.
Three-time Caldecott Honoree Peter Sis rides the rising tide of soccer enthusiasm to score another winner.
Madlenka—that cosmopolitan little girl whose city block is a world of its own—is back and ready to play! When she dribbles her brand new soccer ball out the door and around the corner, it seems that everyone wants to get in the game—the mailbox, a dog, even a parking meter, but especially all the neighborhood cats, and there are enough of them to make a team. But they're no match for Madlenka, who scores the winning goal. Read by Kathleen McInerny.
