Kirkus Reviews Best Picture Book of 2018 School Library Journal Best Book of 2018 The Horn Book Best Picture Book of 2018 Shelf Awareness Best Children's Book of the Year A soccer story--for boy and girls alike--just in time for the World Cup "Vini Come The field calls " cries a girl as she and her younger brother rouse their community--family, friends, and the local fruit vendor--for a pickup soccer (futbol) game. Boys and girls, young and old, players and spectators come running--bearing balls, shoes, goals, and a love of the sport. "Friends versus friends" teams are formed, the field is cleared of cows, and the game begins But will a tropical rainstorm threaten their plans? The world's most popular and inclusive sport has found its spirited, poetic, and authentic voice in Baptiste Paul's debut picture book--highlighting the joys of the game along with its universal themes: teamwork, leadership, diversity, and acceptance. Creole words (as spoken in St. Lucia, the author's birthplace island in the Caribbean) add spice to the story and are a strong reminder of the sport's world fame. Bright and brilliant illustrations by debut children's book illustrator Jacqueline Alc ntara--winner of the We Need Diverse Books Illustration Mentorship Award--capture the grit and glory of the game and the beauty of the island setting where this particular field was inspired. Soccer fan or not, the call of The Field is irresistible.Binding Type: Hardcover

Sad
Color: #03 Champagne
Spray doesn’t work. The spray only worked for a few sprays. I work in the entertaining industry and was looking forward for not just myself but the other girls to use the glitter spray. Out of 30 girls only 3 were able to use it. The spray bottle stopped working. I ordered a replacement and it stopped working also after a few sprays

This really made my 50th anniversary party great! The glitter was very fine which is what you want. The spray atomizer really worked well! So glad I got it!

Excellent quality
Color: Silver
So, I took my two young children to a special photography shoot and they used something similar, it holds great, is not overbearing and lasts a very long time
