A fun rhyming text that brings together two worlds: fairy tales and football!
 
Femi liked flying and trying out twirls
And drawing big dragons, and plunging for pearls,
But the one thing that Femi adored most of all…
…was to pick up and flick up and kick up a ball!
 
Meet Femi – a fairy who’s more interested in playing football than granting wishes. The only problem is, whatever she kicks seems to cause havoc, whether it’s sending Snow White’s poisoned apple smashing through a mirror or Cinderella’s pumpkin into a vat of soup at the palace ball. Banished by the king, Femi heads into the forest, where she finds herself right in the mouth of a cave where a huge, hungry Troll emerges… How will she get herself out of trouble?!
This fun rhyming text is a celebration of women’s football, perfect for those who love both Frozen and the Lionesses.
