Soccer Duel by Matt Christopher
All Renny Harding wants is to play centre-forward and help his team - the Blue Hornets - win the championship. All Bruce McCormack wants is to win the championship for his team - the Yellow Jackets - and to take home the MVP award. The two boys could not be more different, but can they be friends?Matt Christopher (1917-1997) was an American author of children's books. He was a gifted athlete as a youth and became interested in writing at age fourteen, but it was 1941 before he sold his first story, The Missing Finger Points, to Detective Story magazine. His first children's book, The Lucky Baseball Bat, was published in 1954. Christopher wrote more than one hundred books as well as nearly three hundred short stories and articles published in over sixty-five magazines for children and adults. He was awarded the 1993 Milner Award and numerous writing honors from state organizations.
