Wonder Goal!
He shoots! He scores!It was perfect.Head over the ball,balance, power, timing . . .As soon as he kicked it, he knew it was going to be a goal.Wonder Goal! is all about this perfect shot, the fantasy shot that haunts the dreams of all soccer players – young and old – whether their game is taking place on a freezing cold roadside soccer field or in front of thousands of cheering fans in the final match of the World Cup. With a stirring, simple text and glorious watercolors, Michael Foreman brings the fantasy to life in a picture book that captures both the drama and the magic of the most popular game in the world.
Customer Review: Good for Introducing Big Goals
I agree with the reviewer who said the story was “confusing.” I intend to use it as a read-aloud to introduce my class’ big goals for the year, as I am a 5th grade teacher in New York. However, upon delving into the story, I, too, could not figure out if the boy was really playing in the World Cup final or just dreaming about it. I did not get in which game he was actually scoring a goal. Of course, the point is that everyone can have big goals and dreams, and see them to reality if they persevere. Hopefully, I can elicit student reactions without getting bogged down with the text. I can probably spur on some interesting discussion among students as to what the author’s intentions were. I would welcome others’ suggestions on 5th grade level books to share or read independently.

For some kids and adults, however, soccer is an enduring love, and they’re just as enthusiastic–if not as rich in tradition, as their soccer-loving counterparts in other countries. Michael’s Foreman’s imaginative (both literally and figuratively) text and witty illustrations convey how children everywhere dream of attaining big goals (pun intended).
