Aimed at children aged ten and upwards, ’Goalden Girl’ is the story of Gemma Sutherland and her quest to make sure the girls at her school get the chance to play football, despite the boys, particularly Tyrone Collins, doing everything they can to prevent it. There are conflicts between both sexes and tests of will. Who will win the day?
The story has a great appeal for children who enjoy sport, and especially girls who like playing and watching the Beautiful Game. There is also a mystery to solve for Gemma, involving the stepmother she dislikes and her games teacher, Mr Cassidy. An unexpected twist at the end leaves Gemma, and the reader, totally surprised!
