Football mad kids just starting to read on their own will absolutely love this book. Plenty of excitement, humour and action-packed adventure will appeal to even the most reluctant reader.
Jack Lewis is short. So short, in fact, that Mr Bullock, the St Saviours football coach, doesn't want him on the team. But when Mr Willis discovers Jack's 'footballing brain'... and Jack's mum steps in with a few tips... it looks like the School Cup may be just the beginning!
