Offside: A Graphic Novel

For the first time, the Jackson Middle School soccer team is co-ed, thanks to Nicky's determination. But team captain Al wants the girls off the team, and their rivalry threatens to split everyone apart, until a teammate starts to see there's a bigger problem than what's happening on the field. A story about teamwork, fairness, and five very different kids who have more in common than they think.
