Is England the team you cheer for at every EUROs or World Cup? Currently ranked among the top ten, the team has featured in no less than 16 World Cup finals, winning it in 1966, and then came so close to lifting the European trophy in 2020!
In this fun and fact-filled book about the England’s men’s team, Football Superstar’s dynamic duo, Dan and Simon, will take you through the historic highs of the 1966 World Cup, the heartbreak and tears of 1990 and 1996 to the resurgence of the current team. Along the way you’ll learn about the legendary players, managers, matches, songs, fans and, of course, all the stats that tell the story of England’s national sporting obsession.
Football Superstars is a series aimed at building a love of reading from a young age, with fun cartoons, inspirational stories, a simple narrative style and a cast of characters chipping in with quotes, jokes and comments.
