Has anyone read the "awesome sports stories "with their sons ? I am told it is good and boys love it such that they actually want to read it !

Seems very expensive for a 50 page book. Did you write it?!

Both my boys read it as a Dad at their school wrote it- the stories are really genuinely amusing but more importantly have a clear message about good sportsmanship and fairness- all wrapped up with a healthy dose of rudeness and cheek. I think it is more for boys than girls as the stories are focused on football, cricket, rugby and tennis- I got it on Amazon for £4.99 I think under Geoff Pople. Enjoy!

my boys loved Awesome Sports Stories in fact my daughter also enjoyed it ! Highly recommend it and well worth £4.99 , Hopefully Geoff Pople will write another one.

Why not put this in the advertising section where it belongs.

DS (yr5, voracious reader) has no interest whatsoever in sports stories.
Also doesn't go for magic, ghouls or anything starring a girl, although he's okay with Artemis Fowl.

Give 'im War stories, Technology and Adventure any day!!
