Dream Team

Publisher: Barrington Stoke

Cairo is a great footballer. Football is the only thing that matters to him and he is proud to be captain of East End United – so how come his team are doing so badly? Could Cairo’s fiery temper be partly to blame?

When the team coach sends him to the library to look for answers, he is really annoyed. How can a load of books help East End win? But maybe learning about the world’s greatest football inspirations, bad boys as well as leaders, could help United play as a team again.

Plenty of on- and off-the-pitch action in a super-readable format makes this a must for committed football fans. Packed with fascinating facts about the greatest footballers in the world, the book also includes dynamic black-and-white illustrations.
