Who Was Pelé?
A long, long time ago, a little boy named Edson was born in sunny Brazil. Everyone started calling him Pelé, and that's the name that made history! Pelé didn't have fancy toys, but he had a ball! Sometimes his ball was even just a sock stuffed with rags or a grapefruit. He practiced and practiced in the streets. Because he played like no one else, people gave him the best nickname: "O Rei," which means The King! Join us as we learn more about the boy who became one of the world’s most famous soccer players.
