The Soccer Diaries Series

(19 reviews)

In this series, football lovers aged 7+ get to vicariously travel the world with Rocky Race, who has her heart set on becoming the greatest footballer in the world. 

Throughout the series, which should be ideally read in order, we follow determined and ambitious main character Rocky Race from the moment she gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend a prestigious soccer camp in California, USA, to ultimately staying and making it to the California Soccer Championships! As she becomes the player she dreams to be, she will learn how to overcome her insecurities, find a home away from home and make friends that will last her a lifetime.

Rocky is the inspiring football we all need in our life, and this book series is perfect for fans of Roy of the Rovers Series, also written by Tom Palmer, Girls FC  and the Football Superstars books.
