Jackson is surprised when he gets a call-up to play with United's under-eighteen team, and when everyone starts raving about his playing.

Recenzii

If you are working with KS3 students who are reluctant readers - but have a clear enthusiasm towards football - then this series of books should engage, dealing with issues that are very important to young lives.
The concise style will appeal to children as I often find that reluctant readers are put off by weightier tones. The yellow tint and careful font choice are also thoughtful touches. There is a glossary at the back and a bonus section with questions to aid comprehension. All in all, a great choice for those reluctant readers in the classroom.
Hickman's portrait of a young man being let down by his dad is authentic, exciting and sensitive. Neil Evans' accompanying charcoal illustrations are similarly evocative and mature.
