Gooaal! Soccer fans, get your game on with this book about one of the biggest tournaments in women's sports.

Read about the courageous, soccer-loving women who worked hard to have a World Cup of their own in this addition to the Who HQ series. Young readers will learn about the history of women's soccer, star players, and iconic wins! From Team USA's record-breaking four championships to Japan's inspiring win in 2011, this book is full of heart-warming and exciting stories about incredible athletes across decades!
