Book description
RESPECT. That's what Lewis wants from his classmates. Nicknamed
USELESS LEWIS or LOO BRUSH, he's fed up with his stammer, fed up that
he can't pluck up the nerve to join the drama club - and fed up that
the only football he gets to play is pretend matches with his
collection of bottle-tops at home.
Then Lewis' gangly mate Zulfi puts together a team for a five-a-side
charity tournament. And he wants LEWIS to play! Can the bottle-top
king burst out of his shell and show everyone the hero inside?
A fresh, deliciously humourous story from a downtrodden pipsqueak
who knows deep down he's a genius!
Jonathan has been a Play Leader, an English and Drama teacher, and
co-Director of a Traveling Children's Theater, taking plays and
workshops into schools. He now writes full-time for adults, teenagers
and children. He has three lively children, an overgrown allotment and a
pet fox called Shonika.
