Book Synopsis
Meet Charlie Fry. The Football Boy Wonder.
He is the football genius who never misses.
A freak accident planted a magic target in the boy''s head, which has turned him into the world''s best footballer.
After his first season playing for Hall Park Magpies, Charlie is being scouted by some of the biggest clubs in the world. But he has plenty of other challenges on his doorstep to face during the summer months.
The Football Boy Wonder Chronicles is the perfect soccer gift for kids aged five-12. It features three short stories about Charlie Fry''s adventures during one hot summer.
Charlie Fry and the Penalty Shootout
Everyone wants to beat the Football Boy Wonder and his friends. So when Charlie turns up for a five-a-side competition, the opposition teams lick their lips with glee: it''s their big chance to finally beat the Boy Who Never Misses.
With only half his team turning up and older opposition players unwilling to give up their title without a fight, will Charlie be able to lift the prized trophy?
Charlie Fry and the Grudge Match
Charlie Fry and his friends spend every day of the school summer holidays at Crickledon Rec.
But one day a group of strangers turn up - and claim Crickledon Rec for their own. Outnumbered but determined not to give up their home turf without a fight, Charlie and his friends challenge the newcomers to a winner-takes-all match: for the right to play on the Rec for the rest of the summer.
One park. One match. One chance to save the Football Boy Wonder''s home ground.
Charlie Fry and the Super Sub
Hall Park Magpies face one last game this season - against the mums and dads - with the promise of Premier League tickets for the winners.
But with soaring summer temperatures and a professional man-marker facing him, can Charlie Fry inspire Magpies to a final win of an unforgettable season?
The Football Boy Wonder Chronicles is a spin-off from the bestselling Charlie Fry Series. Written to raise awareness about cystic fibrosis, the importance of friendship and bullying, the books are aimed at children between seven and 12.
If your kids love books about Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Harry Kane, then Charlie Fry will be perfect for them!
