Fiction. It's funny, with titles like "to pee or not to pee" and really odd speech bubbles with random hilarious comments. It's characteristic, and its all about football which I love! I would recommend this to anyone who wants to have a giggle.

I enjoyed this book thoroughly because of its funny illustrations and its effort to interact with the the reader. I learnt so much from this non-fiction book thanks to the quizzes at the end of every section. I think it is aimed at people 7-100 years old because of its mixture of laugh-out loud jokes and interesting facts.

Just in a few pages you won't belive what you have learned. Alex Bellos and Ben Lyttleton teach you everything but related to Football! Their Quizzes, test your brain like Pele won the World Cup with cool tricks. I recommend it to people who love football and to people who need to learn WAY more about football.
