The Football Trials: Game Changer by John Hickman
Join Jackson as he struggles with the trials of football and family. A new title in the Bloomsbury High Low range, ideal for struggling and reluctant readers, those with EAL and those with dyslexia. Produced in association with reading experts at Catch Up.
If you are working with KS3 students who are reluctant readers – but have a clear enthusiasm towards football – then this series of books should engage, dealing with issues that are very important to young lives-- UKEdChat
The concise style will appeal to children as I often find that reluctant readers are put off by weightier tones. The yellow tint and careful font choice are also thoughtful touches. There is a glossary at the back and a bonus section with questions to aid comprehension. All in all, a great choice for those reluctant readers in the classroom. -- K and O: Bonkers About Books
Hickman's portrait of a young man being let down by his dad is authentic, exciting and sensitive. Neil Evans' accompanying charcoal illustrations are similarly evocative and mature. -- iNews The Essential Daily Briefing
