Themba (meaning 'hope') grows up in South Africa with a dream: to play for the national soccer team. When his talent opens the doors to the team, his joy crosses paths with his mother's illness, who lives with HIV, and with the fear of being infected. A story about maturity, sports and stigma.
The novel was adapted into a movie; this edition includes a glossary and an epilogue with information about AIDS.
For young readers interested in soccer and in stories with a social background.
Lutz van Dijk is a German and Dutch author and educator.
