A four-legged hero risks it all to make his best friend’s dream come true in this touching adventure of family, football and beating the odds.
Pickles the dog and his owner Elsie love football more than anything. And they’ve just heard the most amazing news. The World Cup is coming home to England and Elsie’s team have a chance to play in a half-time match at Wembley – with some help from Pickles, of course! But life off the pitch is tough, even when Dad works hard to provide what they need. It’s their team of three against the world and right now it feels like they’re losing. So when disaster strikes and Elsie’s dreams of playing at Wembley are shattered, it’s up to Pickles to save the world (cup) …Reviews

it made me impressed because I am usually scared of dogs but she is different and of course football is not my favourite sport but I still like it

I thought this book was really interesting and really brings awareness to homelessness and struggles. I really love how the book is written in the perspective of the dog and Pickles is really positive. I wonder what the book would be like from the perspective of Elsie or Dad...

I love football and this was a good adventure book. It was a bit sad sometimes. I think they should have won a prize at the end.
