Frankie and his friends love nothing more than a game of football — and with their magic football, adventure always follows close behind. In Meteor Madness, an ordinary trip to a theme park takes an extraordinary turn when the gang climb aboard a broken Galaxy Quest ride. Instead of a simple simulator experience, the shuttle rockets them for real, flying the team beyond the stars and into an alien world. There, Frankie discovers new friends in trouble, threatened by an incoming meteor, and only a football match against the aliens can save the day. With time running out, Frankie must rally his team and play the game of his life. This instalment blends Frank Lampard's love of football with an imaginative sci-fi twist, ideal for children who enjoy sport stories with a fantastical edge. Short chapters, energetic pacing and plenty of dialogue keep reluctant readers engaged, while black-and-white illustrations throughout add visual appeal. As with the rest of the series, teamwork, friendship and fair play run through the plot, giving young readers positive messages alongside the thrills. Whether read alone or shared at bedtime, Meteor Madness delivers an exciting, easy-to-follow story that will have young football fans cheering for Frankie's team all the way to the final whistle..
