Product Description

Product Description

It really doesn't look like being Hooker's season. Not only does he spend the first match of the league suffering a dropped-catch jinx but now there' civil war in the team over the selections. Sometimes captaining the Glory Gardens Cricket Team isn't the fun you might think. It's not the matches that prove the most trouble for poor Hooker - it's the infighting. He has one solution that might work but making Ohbert captain in his place! That's not strategy - that's suicide.


From the Back Cover

It really doesn't look like being Hooker's season. Not only does he spend the first match of the league suffering a dropped-catch jinx but now there's civil war in the team over the selections. Sometimes captaining Glory Gardens Cricket Club isn't the fun you might think. it's not the matches that prove tthe most trouble for poor Hooker - it's the infighting. He has one solution that might work. But making Ohbert captain in his place? That's not strategy - that's suicide.

The Glory Gardens series is the perfect read for cricket fans of all abilities. Diagrams, scoresheets and terrific top tips throughout each action-packed story, plus a glossary of cricket terms - you'll be stumped without them!

4.0 out of 5 stars This book is thoroughly enjoyable and is very gullible, 12 Nov 2000
By A Customer
A sensational story of children playing cricket on there wrecked field reaching the height of county cricket. A book that children will costanly want read to them, i thoroughly enjoyed this as did my little brother. this book shows that you dont need to like this particular genre of books but you will still love it and it will broaden yoor feelings on this sport.
