A dazzling story of family, fate and football and one game-changing friendship. * Peter Bunzl, author of The Cogheart Adventures *
A fantastically original debut that champions hope, dogged optimism in the face of adversity, and friendship * M. G. Leonard, author of Beetle Boy *
skillfully written and perfectly paced. Mitch Johnston has produced a fantastically original debut that champions hope, dogged optimism in the face of adversity, and friendship. * M.G. Leonard, author of Beetle Boy *
A fast-paced, compelling read about so much more than the beautiful game. It's about the cost of friendship, about having to make agonisingly difficult choices and about keeping hope alive while life delivers some hard blows * Toppsta reader review *
