“My name is Megan Fawcett and this is the story of how I set up the best football team in the world. Get ready for kick-off!” Nine-year-old Megan Fawcett loves football and is desperate to be on her school team. She tries everything to get the coach to notice her (even wearing a tiara!), but nothing seems to do the trick. Then Megan has her big brainwave: she could start her own team. An all-girls team! Now she just needs a pitch, a coach – oh, and ten other players… This is the first in a series of fun, topical early readers; join the Girls FC as they take the world by storm!
"This book makes football a fun activity that isn’t just for boys and I hope reading the series will encourage more girls to get involved in sport from an early age." – Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson
“An entertaining series focusing on a team of independent girls who are willing to do anything to follow their passion. Each book focuses on a different member of the team spanning family, divorce, school and dyslexia. Full of inclusive messages and diverse characters it will score highly with a wide range of boys and girls who enjoy the beautiful game.” * South Wales Evening Post *
“A hugely engaging, easy to read story.” * BookTrust *
