The print and layout of this book are just right.Its on its way to a 10 year old who likes reading and will appreciate that it does not look like a kids book.I ,of course,had a quick read.Its got some football stories I thought I knew but contains extra information.One tale is of the beach ball which scored for Sunderland!Absolutely true as any Newcastle fan can tell you.Also the Bert Trautmann story is fascinating.
