Team Players are all about belonging.  They like to read about being on the team whether it’s playing a sport or working together as spies.  Stories about friendship, what’s going on at school or an action/adventure story work for them.  They enjoy rooting for the characters and getting to know them as they fight to defend the rules that make the world a good place.
