This children’s book is written by Tanya Preminger and the illustrations are by Elettra Cudignotto.
It tells the story of an 8 year old boy who lives for football, especially Lionel Messi, his favourite player. When he struggles with school work and self confidence , his belief in the sport helps him to work things out.
Throughout the book there are beautiful, colourful illustrations over 30 pages printed on good quality paper.
Football fans everywhere will enjoy this book and hopefully get inspiration from reading it too.
The book which is aimed at children aged 5-11 years retails at £7.99 and is available from many outlets, including Amazon.
Any football lover would be excited to find this book in their Christmas stocking, or at any time of year.
I recommend this book and as it says book 1 on the front cover, I presume that others will follow.
As always questions/comments are welcome.
Until next time.

I would imagine there are very few children’s books that are about football, this will be mainly be aimed at boys but nowadays girls play football as well so the book with be great for both sex. Interesting review Karen .
