About the author Cathy G.
The Breakaways is a raw, and beautifully honest graphic novel that looks into the lives of a diverse and defiantly independent group of kids learning to make room for themselves in the world.
Although they are awful at soccer, Faith and her teammates soon form a bond both on and off the soccer field that challenges their notions of loyalty, identity, friendship, and unity.
Having never played soccer in her life, Faith ends up on the C team, a ragtag group that\'s way better at drama than at teamwork.
To her surprise, Amanda, a popular eighth grader, convinces her to join the school soccer team, the Bloodhounds.
