More than anything, Noah Murphy wants to be a professional soccer player―and participating in the Schools' World Cup qualifiers might be just what he needs to get scouted. But when he's suspiciously banned from his school team for something he didn't even do, all his dreams come crashing down.
Determined to live up to his Mighty Dynamo nickname, Noah must find his own way to enter the contest no matter what it takes. With his best friend Stevie on tactics, and the skills of some unlikely new teammates, he's soon ready to take on the world―just as long as no one plays foul.
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 4–6—Noah Murphy is a star soccer player at St. Killian's in Ireland. He trains hard, passes well, and is an all-around team player. His goal is to be scouted and play professionally—that is why he needs to get his school's team into the Schools' World Cup National Soccer Tournament. His skills are tested when an on-field fight gets him kicked off the team, putting him in danger of missing the World Cup Qualifier in Dublin. Noah is lucky to have the support of his brainy friend Steve, and together they come up with a great solution. They decide to create a new team and play for St. Mary's School for Girls. The new team consists of a band of pals, some friends, Noah's archenemy Kevin McCooley, and a show-off girl named Maggie O'Connell. These teammates become unlikely friends who have a good shot at winning. For Noah, success also means getting his dad (who had to go to Australia to find work) back home so they can be a family again and proving to himself that he is the Mighty Dynamo, a term of endearment his late mom used for him. The writing is funny and characters well-developed. VERDICT A true underdog story that will appeal to sports fans.—Christina Pesiri, Michael F. Stokes Elementary School Library, Island Trees-Levittown NY
Review
"The writing is funny and characters well-developed. VERDICT A true underdog story that will appeal to sports fans."--School Library Journal
". . . there is enough breathless action and strong, believable sports flavor to this effort to make it an easy sell to those (male and female) that enjoy the sport. Go team!"--Kirkus Reviews
"It tackles issues of bullying, sexism, and corruption without ever losing focus on Noah and his mates. Noah and his friends are well-crafted, multidimensional characters, as are the caring adults who try to help out Noah and his fledgling team."--Booklist
