## Description

Promising young players go all out to fulfil their dreams in these gripping football stories for confident readers. Can Yunis persuade his dad that football is a worthwhile career choice? Can Polish goalie Tomasz show the others why he is proud of his home country? Will Joe face up to bullies and take control of his game again? Can Ben transfer his skill for reading soccer tactics to reading written words on a page? Combining on-pitch action with strong characters and lots of psychological insights into the obstacles and rivalries that the boys face, this is winning stuff from a Blue Peter Award nominee. The author, Tom Palmer, has worked with Booktrust and the National Literacy Trust, and was an official writer for the Premier League Reading Stars scheme.

Review: Great for football loving young readers - My 8yo son is a keen football (soccer) player, watcher and video gamer. He really enjoyed these books. The stories and characters clearly captured his interest and imagination and he loved telling me about all the goings on in the academy throughout the series. He read the entire series in 2-3 weeks.
Review: Soccer loving 3rd grader! - My soccer loving 3rd grader loves this series! So great to find a really good sports series!
