I really liked this book. I love soccer and I understand the hard game and competition it is for Ben and how he wants to make his family proud.

This book was pretty bad and than it just suddenly ended

I liked the book because of the lessons about teasing. He played like a Maccabee. And he was happy about playing soccer and how he played. He was brave and kept standing up to the boy on the opposite team who was mean to him.

I loved this book it made me think more about my family and how we celebrate Hanukkah. I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!!!

I really liked this book but I do not like how there was a bully in it. I don't like bullies. But I liked it other then that! I would recommend this book.
