Description
A middle grade children's book written by an assistant headteacher and educational literacy lead with reluctant readers in mind.
Shay and Frankie are best friends and football crazy! They eat, sleep and breathe football all day (even when they're at school!). They dream about playing football, love a kick-about in the park, watch all the big games on TV... all that's missing in their lives is the chance to play for a real football team.
All Cultures United is the best club around for miles and all the footie fans want to play for them... including Shay and Frankie.
Are they good enough to impress Coach Reece at the AC United trials?
Can their friendship survive the competitiveness of football?
Will they ultimately fulfil their goal to become Baller Boys?

"The book explored themes of team work, friendship, hard work, culture, and leadership, those of which are important for young readers and lovers of football as they navigate through todays world, this book definitely would have been good for when I was growing up."
Joanne Meeks, Librarian
"I read this book with my godson who is of mixed heritage and he loved seeing characters that looked like him and had the same interests as him.
"Baller Boys is fun, easy reading and the characters really do come to life! Finally, a series that ALL children can relate to. These books touch upon current issues that we face in today's society, that many people struggle to understand. This series will take pride of place on my bookshelf for generations to come."
