It's not serious or heavyweight stuff. It's light escapist fiction and it's ''very'' undemanding, but it will get them reading, so good for ''Goal!'' and Robert Rigby for that.
My thanks to the nice people at Corgi for sending the book. We also have a review of [[The Eagle Trail by Robert Rigby]].
[[Exposure by Mal Peet]] is for the much more sophisticated reader, but sings beautifully as it talks about football. [[The Kick Off by Dan Freedman]] is also good for reluctant readers, and follows Jamie Johnson in his quest to be a footballer. [[Billy the Kid by Michael Morpurgo]] talks about war and football in days gone by.
