Fox Swift & the Golden Boot

Fox Swift and the Golden Boot is the third instalment in the hilarious footy series by David Lawrence with Cyril Rioli and featuring illustrations by Jo Gill.

Fox and his ragtag team of Diggers are in for another action- packed year of fun, footy and friendship. This year Fox visits the Tiwi Islands with his best mate Lewis Rioli, his younger brother Chase is made captain of the Davinal Under 11’s, and midway through the season, Fox faces an unexpected test – he’s forced to team up with Mace after a slick Metro side challenges their local country league to a match. Can these longtime rivals put their differences aside long enough to triumph over the city slickers?

All of your favourite characters from the first two seasons return, and the Diggers have a new recruit – a speedy half back flanker called Aslam Khan.

Combining the sporting prowess of Cyril Rioli with the wonderfully wacky words of David Lawrence, witty illustrations by Jo Gill and a quirky footy dictionary, Fox Swift and The Golden Boot is the perfect book for any child with a passion for Aussie Rules, or just a passion for a good read.
