Meet Soccer, the 12 year-old Jack Russell Terrier who plays Wishbone on the PBS children’s educational series, Wishbone. As Wishbone, the terrier utilizes his unrestricted imagination, and enters a fantasy land in which he becomes a character in some of our most timeless literary classics, such as Cyrano de Bergerac, Don Quixote, Henry the IV, Rip Van Winkle and much more. Educational, yet light-hearted, this pint-size canine star creates an atmosphere for children that encourages reading and emphasizes the importance of a vivid imagination.
