Beautifully illustrated and what a short concise and encouraging story of living your truth everyday, even when you lose friends and those you love the most. This is so necessary for everyone to read in life. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This is such a good series of short picture books about famous people, and I love how often we have contemporary and living people. This one, on Megan, the huge soccer star is wonderful. Nicely done, and shows her life and trials and such.
This is a good introduction for kids that might be interested in knowing more, or even in knowing about sports figures. Good introduction all around.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.
I normally love this series, but unfortunately this one fell flat for me.
I didn’t know who Megan was, so it was interesting to learn about her, but there was not a lot mentioned at all, especially compared to other books I have read in this series.

While I think it's still a majority of this series of books for young people that concern dead subjects, the number of volumes about positive role models who also happen to have the advantage of being alive is growing. And few could count for more than Megan Rapinoe – or so it appears on this evidence, for women's football really doesn't float my boat. That aside, the fact she was a world's best, one of the few notable homosexual sports players, and someone who sticks up for being true to yourself, all go to qualify her as inspirational. It's a shame then that this isn't a very attractive volume – she looks a punky sort of creature, until 'Boom' she outs herself and there she is in full-on purple La Roux hair, despite all the evidence to the contrary from the photographs on the teachers' notes pages at the back. I think you can correctly infer I had no idea who this woman is, beyond being able to match sport to name, but I was glad to have this quick introduction. These books are all about the positive messages, and the majority succeed. While this tried its best to fail when it comes to the visuals, it's another win for the series.

'Megan Rapinoe' is an inspiring addition to the Little People Big Dreams series! I loved learning about Rapinoe's rise to becoming the best female soccer player through her devotion to sport and natural skill. I especially loved learning about her supportive family, her being true to herself, and fighting for causes she is passionate about.
Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for providing this ARC.

This series is always a joy to read, its a really nice introduction to well known people for little children. Of course the plot is always a little bit fast but thats to be expected and its totally understandable.
This one here is about Megan Rapinoe, a very talented and famous American soccer player. I know how good the US National Women's Soccer team is and if it is that good, it's also thanks to her. She's such an inspiration for people all around the world and I'm so looking forward to seeing her future soccer career and just her future in general.
