IT'S A ROCKY ROAD! Game Changer is the eighth book in the
football-tastic Roy of the Rovers illustrated fiction series, and the second
Rocky of the Rovers story. Part of the third season, this exciting series is
written by award-winning author Tom Palmer.
The newly formed Melchester Women’s team are going from
strength to strength in their first full season of professional football, lead
by the tenacious Rocky Race. But behind the scenes, the morale of the club is
low. After a shocking incident in a men's European game, and the recent Race
family tragedy, Rocky, her brother Roy, and the whole club is struggling to
deal with the aftermath. What’s more, she's fighting with Ffion her friend! Can
she maintain her match-winning performances? How is she supposed to deal with
everything that’s happened? And just where does her footballing future lie?

EPIC! - Match of the Day Magazine
I love the way that they are about so much more than
football: they are about heart, values and family. Both graphic novel and
fiction titles are compelling, engaging and a lot of fun. Lace up and get
reading. - Jim Sells, Programme manager for Sport & Literacy, National
