A shy but talented footballer navigates challenging friendships and anxiety at school in this touching tale from acclaimed author Eve Ainsworth. Lily always feels a little bit left out. Shy and anxious, she finds school really hard, particularly as most of the other girls all seem so confident. Most of the time, Lily wishes that she could just disappear. But during a game of football in PE, Lily’s teacher spots her natural talent and invites Lily to join the local girls’ team, where she starts to make friends with some of the other players. Finally, she thinks she’s found a place where she fits in, but will a vicious argument with one of her teammates put all her progress in jeopardy?

Amazing

This was a very exciting story.Because they are having a football match.

This is awesome I love the football in it and how she loves to get involved at the end also if you don’t like football then you don’t have to just like it cause of the football book it got loads of different stuff in it I would definitely recommend it to anyone

A light- flowing football story where each chapter is interspersed with factual details about the history of women’s football. I have been looking for sport and football stories for school but I’m not sure what interest there is to read about women’s football. 🤔
