The Wonder Team and the Forgotten Footballers - A time twisting adventure from captain of Euro winning Lionesses

A time-twisting adventure from Leah Williamson, captain of the Euros-winning women''s England team, written with debut author Jordan Glover, including illustrations by Robin Boyden. When Leah unearths a mysterious time capsule in her local park with her two best friends Mimi and George, she opens up a whole new world of adventure. Transported a hundred years back in time, she finds a women''s football team in crisis. Can she and her friends lead them back to victory? The odds are against them, but time is on their side! Loosely based on one of Leah Williamson''s big inspirations, the Dick Kerr Ladies and their brave protest against the ban on women''s football, this is a fun adventure that comes from the heart.
