FULLY ILLUSTRATED WITH COMIC-STYLE CARTOONS, this action-packed Football Superstars story is perfect for young readers aged five and up.
Is Lucy Bronze your ultimate football hero? One of the greatest defenders in the history of the women’s game, Bronze helped power England to historic glory at the UEFA Women’s Euro 2022 and has collected major honours at the highest level of international football.
A fearless, attacking right-back, Bronze is known for her strength, stamina and thunderous strikes from distance. Discover how she battled through serious knee injuries, defied those who doubted her comeback, and returned stronger than ever to become one of England’s most decorated players.
From World Cup campaigns to Champions League nights, Lucy Bronze’s story is one of resilience, belief and relentless drive – and why she continues to inspire young footballers around the world.
Football Superstars is a fast-paced, highly visual series combining comic-style cartoons, clear storytelling and a lively cast of characters who add jokes, quotes and commentary throughout.
Simon once worked at the Science Museum in London, where he flew paper aeroplanes and made giant bubbles for children. Now he writes and edits books about things like dinosaurs, ice hockey, thunderstorms and llamas. He lives in Kent with his wife and daughter, a cat and two tortoises.
Dan Green has drawn silly pictures since he could hold a crayon. Then he grew up and started making books about stuff like trucks, space, people’s jobs, Doctor Who and Star Wars. Dan lives in Suffolk with his wife, son, daughter and dog that takes him for very long walks.
