Book Review

Specky Magee & the Battle of the Young Guns
by Felice Arena,Garry Lyon

by Felix Wilkins, Grade 4, Kingsville Primary School., Sep 2009

The latest book in the best series I have ever read has gotta be good. And it is.

Specky has to deal with playing under-15s footy for Victoria. But with big obstacles like failing a maths test, not being able to play and people following him everywhere, it’ll be very hard. And there’s a big decision for Specky – a brain strainer!

A great novel with suspense, friendship and romance (ugh!). And of course, footy! 5 out of 5 for a big-time good book that has the world ravenous for more.

Keep it up, Felice, Garry, I think you deserve $100 million for this.
