Ajani and his friends love soccer. He has earned a new "official" soccer ball and can't wait to play, but in his South African town , there are bullies who may take it. On his way to get water from the well, he stops to play with the boys. One friend stands look out in case trouble arrives, which it does.
A great kid-friendly story of Ajani's environment, its pleasures, and issues. The illustrations are beautiful and the author's note presents the evolution and importance of "football."
