Kick for the Stars follows Pia who is a girl that loves soccer. The story follows Pia from when she was 6 and playing with a homemade soccer ball to when she was 16 and playing on the national team of the Philippines. The illustrations are bright and colorful, and the story has great messages about living your dream and not giving up when things get tough.
