Biographical Fridays: Who is Lionel Messi? vs Who is Cristiano Ronaldo? In-Person
For Ages 7-9.
For the first half hour, we will be discussing the books. An activity will be planned for the second half of the hour, based on our reading material. Register online and pick up a copy of the book in the Children's Room.
This week's selections are:
Who is Lionel Messi?
Lionel Messi loved soccer as a boy and made his first team debut in 2003 at just sixteen-years-old. He went on to break numerous records, helped Argentina win the 2022 World Cup, and become one of the most decorated footballers of all time.
Who is Cristiano Ronaldo?
When Cristiano Ronaldo was twelve-years-old he was recruited to play professional soccer for a team in Portugal 100s of miles away from his home. For the next twenty-five years he has spent his career playing for teams in Portugal, England, Spain, and Italy, becoming a true international superstar.
We're encouraging participants to read both biographies, come wearing their favorite player's jersey, and weigh in on who they think would win.
