Capture World Cup Fever with Little Heroes Personalized Children's Books

June 10, 2010 - PRLog -- Every four years, billions of people worldwide are mesmerized by the simple act of a ball being kicked back and forth between competing teams. Little Heroes personalized children’s books captures the 2010 World Cup fever, with their latest personalized soccer book, The Golden Goal. Designed with Little Kickers, a leading children’s soccer program in the UK, parents can create a unique children’s book featuring their child scoring the winning goal of the championship for their favorite soccer team.

The Golden Goal builds on Little Heroes’ ability to personalize stories and illustrations to look like your child, allowing parents to choose a team name and create the unique soccer uniform of their child’s favorite team!
Whether it's the Three Lions of England or the Azzuri of Italy, the Golden Goal can be personalized to feature your child in the exact team uniforms as the national teams competing in the World Cup this year.

“Children, including my own, need very little encouragement to kick a ball about,” says Christine Stanchus, owner and founder of Little Kickers. “But as they get older and learn to read, they are often less enthusiastic. This all changes when the book is all about them, their favorite team and sport!”

The Golden Goal is also the perfect way to keep kids reading during the school break. “Teachers find in September, when kids come back from vacation, there’s often a drop in reading and comprehension levels,” says Alla Ostrovsky, Little Heroes Educational Expert with 25 years of teaching experience. “Young children need to keep reading, or be read to, throughout summer to avoid this happening.”
