Brazil (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781682777657)

Score a goal with soccer fans age 12 and up in this new Creative Sports series. Since the first FIFA World Cup in 1930, only eight nations have won the coveted championship! Each upper-elementary title introduces the history of one of these national teams, where it plays home games, its big rivals, its star players and coaches, and its World Cup appearances and wins. No national soccer team has won more FIFA World Cups than Brazil--five in all! Pelé, Garrincha, Romário, Zico, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Neymar: only Brazil can claim these, and more, all-time greats of world soccer. Many soccer fans consider Pelé to be the best ever to play the "the beautiful game." This upper-elementary title follows the "Canary Squad" through thrilling, fast-paced matches as it "sambas" its way into the hearts of its passionate fans. Vibrant layouts spotlight players of different eras, and an "About the Team" section recaps important facts. Includes a glossary and index.
