This Little Puffin ... by Elizabeth Matterson

Orlando has speed that no other member of the Troy Central High Trojans can match. He also has a serious temper. After clashing with the man in charge of the Trojans, Coach Zachary, Orlando decides to bail. Then he does the unthinkable and joins the Trojans' rivals, the Athens High Raiders. And Orlando's not just taking his talents away from Troy--he's taking his knowledge of their playbook.

Devon was Orlando's best friend at Troy Central High. He's shocked at Orlando's decision to leave. But after the news makes Devon an outsider on his own team, he starts to wonder if Orlando made the right choice . . .

Raymond Briggs is one of our most respected and beloved artists. Born in Wimbledon Park in 1934, he studied at the Wimbledon School of Art and later at the Slade School of Fine Art, and went on to produce a treasure trove of work. He has created characters that are now icons for generations of children, including Fungus the Bogeyman, Father Christmas and, of course, the beloved Snowman. The biography of his parents in graphic novel form, Ethel & Ernest, became a bestseller in the UK, and an animated feature film based on the novel was released in 2016. He has won many awards over his career including the Kurt Maschler Award, The Children's Book of the Year, Dutch Silver Pen Award, and the prestigious Kate Greenaway Award twice for his Mother Goose Nursery Treasury and Father Christmas. In 2017 Raymond was awarded the Booktrust Lifetime Achievement Award. He lives in Sussex.
