Shorty the Striker

Shorty's real name is Dwayne, Dwayne Thomas. But people always call him Shorty. As his name implies, Shorty is ... a bit short, but he’s an amazing kicker. He can kick a ball further than anybody else. The problem is, as his coach says, “You can't win a football match just by kicking!”. But Shorty couldn’t really care less – he only says “So what!”. Until the day that nobody wants to play on his team anymore ...

An engaging, interactive story about football, winning and losing, trying hard and not giving up, and about the longest kick in history.
