About this deal

A penalty shootout is a special way to decide a winner if a soccer match ends in a draw. It doesn’t happen in all soccer matches, but in big cup competitions, if no winner can be decided at the end of normal time (90 minutes) and extra time (an extra 30 minutes), then a penalty shootout is used to decide a winner. In this powerful and stylishly attractive non-fiction book, Cerrie Burnell introduces the reader to 34 disabled role models. This book is about how to achieve your dreams. It also tells you to believe in yourself and the importance of practicing. You need to work hard and be confident! You can be the next champion!

We love soccer in England. It’s the most popular sport in the country. Everyone learns how to play it at school, and most weekends, thousands and thousands of people go to stadiums around the country to watch their favorite soccer team play. So England playing in a European final was a BIG deal! The writing is pitched at the perfect level for 9-11 year olds and I read this with my 8 and a half year old Nico who found it easy to follow and has boosted his confidence not only in his reading but also in himself and his own abilities. Carl Anka, co-writer of Rashford's first book You Are A Champion, explains why they both felt it was so important to write a book which tells children that with self-belief and hard work, anything is possible. Within you right now is the most incredible potential to go out there and chase your dreams, to be a champion in almost anything you put your mind to, because there are so many different ways you can be one!

About Marcus Rashford, Carl Anka

I liked this book as it is a good book to give you advice to stand up for yourself and be confident in your own skin. It interested me lots because I loved reading all of Marcus Rashfords stories in his childhood and I bet anyone could laugh at a few of them! I liked this book because it inspired me to go towards my dreams and it showed me that anything is possible . As Marcus says: ‘It’s hard to know what is possible until you start. You have to be able to dream big and be prepared to work towards your dreams. Good things take time. I’ve achieved a lot, but it didn’t come in one go. Big things rarely happen overnight, and good things rarely happen as if by magic . . .’ You Are A Champion

I have been struggling a lot with my confidence and this book has really helped me. Marcus speaks about believing in yourself and learning to understand your strengths and embracing them. Tear up the rule book. Find your own lane. You are only in competition with yourself. In this inspiring, positive and practical guide, Marcus gives YOU the tools you need to reach your full potential and will show you that your possibilities really can be endless.

Keep in touch

As Marcus sees it there’s more than one way to be a champion, and everyone has the ability within themselves to do amazing things. You don’t need to come number one in a competition to say you’re the best, because everyone is already the best at something - being themselves. I went up to take my penalty with nearly 60,000 England fans cheering me on. The Italian goalkeeper, a man called Gianluigi Donnarumma, is one of the biggest goalkeepers in the world of soccer, standing six feet, four inches tall. At my level of soccer, the goal is eight feet tall and eight yards wide, so I want you to imagine this BIG man filling up most of the space in this BIG goal, making it hard to score. No matter who you are and no matter where you come from, every single person in the world has the potential to be a champion. In You Are A Champion, the nation’s favourite footballer gives you the tools you need to reach your full potential, showing you how to be the very BEST version of yourself you can be. I work as a tutor for a company who provide Day Services to disabled adults of all ages. After reading my eARC, I have already added this book to my reading group list, because I have some students in mind who would love to hear these words of encouragement and inspiration from a man like Marcus Rashford.
