About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is full of 'why' and 'how' questions during their weekly sports practice. It is perfect for children who love physical activity but might struggle to stay engaged with traditional science textbooks. By moving the classroom to the soccer field, the story demonstrates that science is not just something in a lab: it is the reason a ball rolls, stops, or flies through the air. Pearl is a relatable, inquisitive leader who models how to observe the world through a scientific lens while maintaining a sense of play. The book highlights teamwork and self-confidence, showing that intelligence and athleticism go hand-in-hand. It is an ideal bridge for children ages 5 to 9 who are transitioning from simple picture books to early chapter books, providing clear definitions of forces and motion within a familiar, high-energy setting.
