Why Can't I Play Football?
Helen Summers
The Why can't I books are designed to help children realise their ambitions - even if sometimes they meet unexpected challenges. In this book, Sarah is a young girl with a dream. All she wants to do is play football but when the boys in the park tease her and tell her she cannot play, she does not know where to turn. Written in verse with bright supporting illustrations the story explores how Sarah's mum finds a way of helping her learn from the experience. After doing some research, her mum shows her that anything is possible when she puts her mind to it.
