Megs and the Vootball Kids

[greenpoint]

Has anyone read Megs and the Vootball Kids, the children's book that Mark Schwarzer wrote with Neil Montagnana Wallace last year?

My eight year old son and I are reading it for the second time. It's quite good really! It gives good raps to the A-League and the Socceroos, and even mentions the Mariners.

Not sure whether it's widely available in bookstores. It's a pretty small publisher, Bounce Books in Rosanna, Victoria (http://www.bouncebooks.com/).

I got mine from the Green and Gold Army online (http://www.ggarmy.com/), and it was signed by Mark Schwarzer. Not a bad birthday present for the eight year old! His dad's pretty fond of it too.

Hey, and I've just found out that the next book in the series will be released in Australia on 1 June:

Apparently there was a media conference in Sydney today and there are others planned for other parts  of Australia  this week:

No, before you ask, I'm not Megs Morrison's publicity officer! I just thought others might be interested. Especially if you have school-age kids (or if you have a school-age kid's taste in reading).
