Reach for this book when you notice your child is performing for your approval rather than their own enjoyment, especially in competitive sports.

When a move to a new town lands him on an unorganized, low-pressure team, he finally finds the space to rediscover why he liked the game in the first place. It is a perfect choice for children ages 8 to 12 who are navigating high-pressure environments or big life transitions like moving. This story validates the feeling of burnout while offering a hopeful path toward balancing hard work with genuine joy.
