I Love Footy!
I Love Footy! is a wild, fun romp that shows kids that a world of fantasy and adventure can be real, if they just want to get involved. And that world is as close as their back yard! I Love Footy! shows that sport is not just about winning, it’s about enjoyment, friendship and having a go!
About the Author and Illustrator
Matt Zurbo loves footy. He has spent his whole life working in the bush, playing Aussie Rules, city and country, in three separate States, and writing stories. He coached mostly juniors for nine years and is, at time of printing, about to play his 31st year of Senior and Reserve football. His children's and Young Adult books have won awards and his footy work includes writing for the Footy Almanac and numerous short stories and books for his self-published Zurbo Inc. He loves a good, solid grab, but is a terrible kick. He blames his hamstrings!
