Product description
*WINNER of the Sunday Times Children’s Sports Book Prize 2023 * SHORTLISTED for Laugh Out Loud Book Awards 2024: Non-Fiction *
“Every page is guaranteed to grab the imagination and it’s the perfect thing for dipping into at half time.” Love Reading 4 Kids
A hilarious fact and fiction hybrid from bestselling author and stand-up comic James Campbell, who has visited over 3,000 primary schools to tell stories and encourage children to write their own.
Want to know why OCTOPUSES can’t play football? And how to play the game across multiple DIMENSIONS? How about learning the REALRULES of how football is played, why Henry VIII banned it, plus where it came from and who the greatest players of ALLTIME are?
Whether you love a game of TABLEFOOTBALL, can’t get enough of BACK-GARDENBALL, only enjoy the game from your SOFA or would sooner swim with sharks than play it, if you LOVE to LAUGH – then this is the book for you!
But be warned – this is NOT a normal book. You can read it forwards, backwards, sideways and in approximately 861,000 different ways in between. From comedian extraordinaire James Campbell, get ready to laugh your BUTT off to a silly book filled with funny stories, partly-true facts and hilarious pictures that will make you think twice about the game everyone thinks they know so well.
