Description
Discover the life of Megan Rapinoe, the world record-breaking footballer and activist. Chasing a ball in the school playground, Megan discovered her calling at a young age. Even if she didn't always fit in at school, she was a star on the field- and her teammates thought so too. Her passion, skill and leadership took Team USA to Olympic Gold and a World Cup victory, while she continues to champion women's and LGBTQ+ rights and representation in sport.

Simple and brightly colored illustrations and a condensed bio from childhood to the reason for inclusion in this landmark series is what makes each story so valuable to young, old, reading impaired, and ESL alike. Megan grew up in the US, but became a world class (including Olympic) soccer player!
