True

More about the book

True has a singular path: to be the greatest soccer player of her generation. She'll need to make the Under-17 National Team, then the Residency Program, and the ultimate: the US Women's National Team. Otherwise she can say goodbye to the Women's World Cup. And True will do whatever it takes to be the top girl on the field. With the loss of her mother, True is forced to take care of her autistic younger sister while her grieving father wastes his time gambling. And high school isn't much better: her teammates are getting taller. On the pitch, she's a soccer player first, a sister second. On the pitch, she's free.-- from jacket.
