Chase for the Championship
Description
The new book from James Steptowe, author Raid of the Ratskull Rodents (May 2019)
Chase for the Championship
A football story for girls and boys
Sarah Saunders, striker for Lingerfield F.C., and Yonis Ganim, goalkeeper for SLS United, are locked in a tight battle for their under-eleven championship title.
Only 1 point separates their teams at the midway point in the season.
However, as the chase for the championship heats up, both Sarah and Yonis realise there are much more important things in life than just football…
Target Audience
If you’re aged 7+ and love football or sport themed stories then this is a book you won’t want to miss. Chase for the Championship is unique among books of its kind due to it having both a girl and boy main character whose sides of the story are told throughout the book.
It’s a book that is perfect for reluctant or struggling readers due to the way it has been written and formatted, but one with an exciting and engaging story that will hook even the ablest readers.
