Football Fever Award-winning illustrator by Sophie Smiley (author) and Michael Foreman (illustrator)

Three fantastic stories about life in a family where everyone is totally footie-crazy! In Bobby, Charlton and the Mountain, Bobby goes busking to make money for a new football strip – until a local bully interferes. Luckily, his birthday turns out extra-special when his birthday surprise is brought by his absolute hero! In Man of the Match, Charlie and Bobby have gone to summer camp, and while Bobby is trying to get his new friend to play football, Charlie is busy trying to conquer her fear of water. In Team Trouble, Charlie and Bobby are gob-smacked when their older brother Semi won’t play football any more. In fact, all he does seems to do is grow spots and take showers! Can they coax him back on-side – and his new girlfriend, too? This three-in-one book includes pictures by top children’s illustrator Michael Foreman.
