'A sure-fire hit. ... A superb, easily accessible and very attractive book.'

'Great for reading aloud, my children loved them and were often chuckling pink with laughter!'

A brilliant collection of poetry about all aspects of football from the talented pen of Paul Cookson. Just right to get boys reading poetry and to stop them thinking poetry is just for girls!
