Synopsis
Cheer on Noah and his team in Kieran Crowley's The Mighty Dynamo. Filled with footy, fun and friendship, it's an hilarious story perfect for young football fans.
Noah longs to be a professional footballer – and playing in the Schools' World Cup qualifiers might be just what he needs to get scouted. But when he's banned from his school team for something he didn't do, all his dreams are in doubt.
Determined to live up to his Mighty Dynamo nickname, Noah must find his own way to enter the contest – no matter what it takes! With best friend Stevie on tactics, and the skills of some unlikely new teammates, he's soon ready to take on the world – just as long as no one plays foul . . .
