This book explores Friendship due to James has to make friends to become a football player so he can have fun when he is training and playing games with his colegegs and i think everyone should read this book if you love football or are inspirened by Jame tedesco like me this book shows how James (teddy) become famous football player for Roosters and Was captain for NSW in 2020-2023 an dwas a really good captain for the whole team he is also captain for this team Roosters and are amazing players and are sitting really high on the ladder board this year and every year and everyone is a really big rooster fan and everyone loves Sydney and Roosters is only Sydney team going all the other ones are suburbs of sydney and are also really good teams.One of the most important themes explored in this book is friendship which when playing sport is really important to have friends on your team because it makes playing sport really fun and if you make a mistake you can always have a laugh but not being friends with all yur team mates makes it very hard if your playing and make a mistake you would feel really embarrassed and i wouldnt be fun if that bully you and tell veryone and in football yuo haev to be really good becasuse every game you are live streamed. This book has a lot of themes explored but friendship is a really important and significant theme explored in this book as when playing games you have a have a strong friendship as you will be playing together, training together and partying after winning games. In conclusion this book should be read by people whop love sport and also love reading and have really strong friendships.

I found it at the library and I like watching rugby so I decided to try it. It was pretty good and from the Menagle meerkats to the Camden rams it was good to read and I did want to take a break. But when I got to the ending part I didn’t stop reading. Not bad or rubbish but very entertaining. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
