About this listen

Battling problems at home, Amelia risks her spot on the football squad when she lashes out at her teammates in this sensitively told sports tale from acclaimed author Eve Ainsworth.

Football used to be a way for Amelia to escape when her parents were arguing, but now that her dad has moved out and her mum is struggling to cope, it’s just another source of stress.

Amelia is late for practice while trying to help her mum and finds it hard to concentrate during important matches. Her coach and team-mates are all worried, but it’s difficult to help when Amelia lashes out in anger.

Can Amelia find a way to get the support she needs before her temper pushes everyone away?

Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.

Critic Reviews

"Battling problems at home, young footballer Amelia risks her place in the squad when she lashes out at her team-mates in this warm-hearted and insightful sports tale, the third in the much-loved Lightmoor Lionesses series … promotes messages about kindness, empathy and teamwork, and includes helpful tips for managing anger. Luna Valentine’s heartfelt illustrations add extra emotive power and the story will certainly score a winning goal with football fans and any youngsters facing their own challenges both at home and on the sports field." – Wigan Today

"This is the third book in Eve Ainsworth’s Lightmoor Lionesses series and once again demonstrates the author’s ability to weave issues of social and personal concern into the very fabric of engaging and pacy stories of young girls with football as their passion." — The Letterpress Project

"A glimpse into how drastically a young person's life can change due to family circumstances. And a reminder to everyone that when someone you know starts to act or behave differently, reach out to them, show them you care and be a listening ear. It takes courage to reach out and ask for help, but it's easier when there's support available rather than judgment." — Library Looter, blog
