Football Superstars Series

by ,
(73 reviews)

Football fans aged 5+ will get a real KICK out of this series! Full of facts, true stories, stats and jokes, Football Superstars is a fantastic series for reluctant readers, non-fiction lovers or more simply that one kid we all know who is obsessed with football. 
 
From Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to Bukayo Saka and Sadio Mane, each of the Football superstars books zooms in on the story, life and major success moments of one of the many footballers who have made history. Which one will be your ultimate hero?
 
The series also includes extra titles that focus on teams, for example the Lionesses, Liverpool and England, jokes or simply how fantastic football is and why it’s the biggest game on the planet.
 
And if you’re worried readers might get bored quickly, we promise that’s nothing to worry about! The books all contain stories that inspire, but also funny cartoons, jokes, quotes, quizzes, comments and an easy-to-read narrative style that will grasp readers at all levels.
 
Football Superstars is a series aimed at building a love for books from a young age by tapping into one of children’s biggest interests: sports. Each story is illustrated and written in a Tom-Gates style, and each story is told both visually and through words.  
 
Welcome to the amazing world of football, told through dynamic duo Simon Mugford and Dan Green, and prepare to fall head over heels for football!
