The Mighty Lions & the Big Match

Tom Chapman

Abel, his brother Drake and the rest of the Mighty Lions have made it to the final match against the Tigers. They know they have to win the cup, especially as it is expected of them. But with the stakes getting higher as the game progresses, it becomes too much for the young footballers and they crack under the pressure. They lose the match and are disappointed that they've let everyone down. Worse, they are worried they've completely failed. But Mum and Dad Lion have some important words for their young cubs: that losing one match doesn't make them failures. This important picture book portrays the incredible pressure that kids – and especially boys – can face on the sports pitch, and discusses how learning from failure can only make you stronger.
