    Mo may not be the biggest, the strongest, or the fastest football player, but he won't let that stop him from playing! The Geisel Award Winning reader from David Adler is now in Step into Reading!

    Mo is the youngest kid on the Robins football team. The kids on the rival team tease him for being a "butterfingers" who's too tiny to catch the ball. But Mo's coach has a plan up his sleeve to turn Mo's little size into a big win for the Robins.

    Step 2 readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories. They are perfect for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.
