Please read some lovely reviews from Toppsta.com below:
"It was a fantastic book and it blew my mind. Note from parent: my son absolutely loved this book and didn’t want it to end. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it to him.”
"This book is fantastic for key stage 2. My key worker group loved it! They all listened intently as I read it aloud. Johnny Ball is a great character that we could all identify with and the story is really well written with great illustrations and a super storyline. I'm going to read it to my 6 year old now too. I would definitely buy more Johnny Ball books!”
"I'm going to dress up like Johnny Ball for World Book Day next year!”
"Alexander loves this book, it could have been written about him as his whole world at the moment is Football, just like the main character Johnny Ball. He talks about it non-stop, watches it, reads about it so this book is right up his street, he found it extremely entertaining. A fabulous book. Very good illustrations all in black and white.”
This is a delightful story that will be perfect not just for football fans but also for those who want a funny and quirky feel–good read for age 8+.
