Reviews

Jessica

England's Heroes is a well-crafted timeline of England's football history, from 1872 (the first football match ever for the whole world where England and Scotland played) to now - the current England team going to play in the 2026 World Cup.

Tom Palmer has pulled another success with this thrilling tale of the Three Lions and I would recommend it to anyone with a passion for football - specifically ages seven to 14. England's Heroes has taught me lots about the history of English football and how my son's favourite sport has developed over the decades. As a primary school teacher, I look forward to engaging my class with the forthcoming World Cup through Tom Palmer's words.
