Renowned sports journalist Dan Wetzel shoots and scores with Epic Athletes: Lionel Messi, an inspiring young readers biography of a soccer great who rose from an underdog to a champion Featuring comic-style illustrations by Jay Reed Lionel Messi has taken the soccer world by storm. He scored the most goals in a season. Hes racked up championships. There was even a statue built in his honor. Despite the accolades, hes still hungry for more goals, more championships, more opportunities to shine on the soccer pitch. Messis drive to succeed has motivated him ever since he first stepped on his local, worn down field as a kid. Yet his success didnt come without bumps in the road. Diagnosed with a career-threatening medical condition at ten, Messi refused to give up on his dream, and went on to amass one of the greatest careers in sports history.
