Getting
a gift is a great thing. Getting something you really want makes you
very happy, right? This is exactly what happened to
a British boy named Joseph Pritchard. Recently, he got a very special gift from his dad.
Joseph is 8 years old and he loves playing soccer very much. He plays
soccer with his friends every day. In fact, he is an excellent soccer player.
His dream is to become a goalkeeper in the England
Premier League. But there is a little problem. So, what¡¯s his problem?
Joseph was born with only 6 fingers - 3 fingers on each hand. But
don¡¯t worry. He is very healthy, and he has a special talent as a goalkeeper. However,
it was hard for him to find goalkeeper gloves that fitted his hands. The gloves
kept on coming off. So his father decided to get a special pair of
gloves for him.
Take a look at the picture.
The gloves fit perfectly on his hands! ¡°They
are helpful to me because they
won¡¯t fall off when I¡¯m playing
soccer and they are more comfy,¡± said Joseph with
a big smile. ¡°They are one of the best presents I¡¯ve ever had!¡±
According to Joseph¡¯s dad,
the happy boy didn¡¯t take them off most of the day, even when he was
drinking his tea! I¡¯m also very happy for you, Joseph! Keep practicing
soccer and become a great goalkeeper! |
