New boy Smithy can't understand why everyone is so excited about a player on the football team called "Bengo." Bengo's been absent for the first few games of the season and starts the next game on the bench, so surely he can't be that special? But when Smithy finally gets a chance to see him in action, Bengo is easily the best player he's ever seen, putting in perfect crosses and generally running the opposition ragged. So why is Bengo left on the bench so often, and why does he seem to bottle it when any strong tackles come his way? Union Square & Co.'s EVERYONE CAN BE A READER books are expertly written, thoughtfully designed with dyslexia-friendly fonts and paper tones, and carefully formatted to meet readers where they are with engaging stories that encourage reading success across a wide range of age and interest levels.
