Critics Review

Featured in The Bookseller July Previews. – Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *What a gem of a book packed full of stories and facts about football and players. I know that on Monday my class are going to love reading this… just wish I had more copies. Perfect timing for the Euros starting too. – Teacher * Toppsta *Sebastian loves this series. This one is about many different teams. So many new facts he didn’t know. A great book especially if your into football. – Parent * Toppsta *A great book for football fans! Perfect to dip into! My class particularly liked the best of the crest information. It is in alphabetical order too which is useful and has a contents page too. Lots of facts like world cup records, home kits and a bit of Geography too! – Teacher * Toppsta *
