Chasing a Rugby Dream: Book One: Kick Off

English

By (author): David Brayley James Hook

Winner of the Telegraph Sports Book Awards Childrens Book of the Year

Small, skinny and short-sighted . . . and dazzlingly talented.

Jimmy Joseph loves rugby. All he dreams about is one day playing for his country in a World Cup, or winning a Test series for the Lions with a last-minute drop-goal. But when he kicks an up-and-under in the schoolyard and accidentally hits the new head of PE, Mr Kane, on the head, he makes a powerful enemy.

Jimmy and his best friends  Manu, Scott and Kitty  try to prove their worth on the rugby field, but to no avail. Mr Kane has it out for them, and hes being helped by team captain Mike Green, well known as the school bully.

Can Jimmy and his friends overcome the tyranny of Mr Kane and help Mike see the error of his ways? Or will the combination of bullying, pressure and dirty tactics derail the friends rugby careers before they have even begun?

An epic new rugby series begins here!
