An inspiring, down-to-earth memoir by US national team goalkeeper Tim Howard, now adapted for young readers

As fiercely protective about his privacy as he is guarding the goal for the US national team and for Everton in the English Premier League, Howard opens up for the first time about how a hyperactive kid from New Jersey with Tourette's syndrome defied the odds to become one of the world's premier goalkeepers.
