What if your child learned that the secret to success is simply never giving up?
In Carlos Never Gives Up, young readers join Carlos, a determined soccer player who loves the game more than anything. There’s just one problem—his kicks never go very far. During practice, the other players send the ball flying across the field while Carlos’s ball barely rolls.
Carlos begins to feel frustrated and wonders if he will ever get better.
But with encouragement from his coach and help from a good friend, Carlos learns an important lesson: great players aren’t born overnight—improvement comes from practice, patience, and believing in yourself.
So Carlos keeps trying.
He practices at the park.
He practices with his teammates.
He practices even when things feel hard.
Then one day, during a big game, Carlos gets another chance.
And this time… everything changes.
