Join author Karen Scholl as she discusses her book Surviving Soccer: A Chill Parent’s Guide to Carpools, Calendars, Coaches, Clubs, and Corner Kicks.  A satirical, illustrated guide filled with comic relief for devoted, frenzied, exhausted soccer parents.

If, on any given evening, you’re grabbing your keys, tearing apart the house to find your kid’s missing game shorts/water bottle/lucky headband, and praying that Google Maps takes you to the right field this time, then Surviving Soccer: A Chill Parent’s Guide to Carpools, Calendars, Coaches, Clubs, and Corner Kicks is the gentle nudge in the ribs you need to release the breath you may not even realize you’re holding.

Surviving Soccer follows a typical youth soccer season, from the high of getting on a team, to the high of leaving the last game knowing you’ll never have to sit next to Kaylee’s dad again. Over the course of three sections, 10 chapters, and more than 50 pseudo-serious charts, diagrams, and text conversations, you’ll enjoy snort-laughs big enough to distract you from the cowbell the other team’s parents keep ringing. With short, scannable sections and meme-worthy illustrations, Surviving Soccer can be read in the back seat, in the line for the porta-john, or on the sideline while practice runs late (again).
