“That night Lydia felt sad. Kangaroo could jump the highest, Emu could run the fastest and Koala could climb the best. Lydia wanted to be the best at something too. Was there a sport for her?”⠀

This fun and inspiring book is about being part of a team and persistence. It is about a girl called Lydia who loves to play sport with her friends Emu, Kangaroo and Koala. Her friends are so talented and Lydia was hoping she could find a sport that she was good at too. And she did... literally!! This book was written by Lydia Williams who is goal keeper for the Matildas and now Arsenal! Lydia grew up in the outback, camping and travelling so she often didn’t have anyone to play with but she had the bush animals to keep her company 🐨⠀
