Jackson LOVES football. He plays it. He watches it. He eats it. He sleeps it!
Jackson lives and breathes football - he knows all the players, the fixtures, the scores. Then, one grey stormy day, Jackson kicks his ball, and it goes up ... and up ... and UP! All the way to the moon! Overnight, Jackson becomes an international footballing sensation, and before you know it, he's kicked ALL of the Earth's footballs into space. The moon-folk - the aliens! - don't know the rules of the game, but they become football mad all the same. It's up to Jackson to bring football home...

Reviews
Featured in the October Previews -- Charlotte Eyre * The Bookseller *
This totally bonkers tale is told in Michelle's rollicking rhyming narrative and Chris Mould's highly comical, inclusive scenes of soccer mania. With the countless young soccer fans out there I have no doubt this will be a resounding success. * Red Reading Hub *
