About this listen
Sami and Ali dream of playing for the school football team. They practise in the park every day and work hard on their skills. But acing the trials is the last of the boys' worries when they're made to feel they don't belong on the team because of the colour of their skin.
Ali just wants to tackle the ball on the pitch. Now he's being forced to tackle the racism in his team too. But how can he, when he's told it's 'just banter'?

'A gripping story showing the power of friendship with a hopeful and empowering message that we can all effect change!' (Dr Graham Fairweather, Senior School Librarian)
'Boot It depicts how hope can be found even in the throes of despair. especially when you have the right people on your team.' (Sajeda Amir, Secondary School Teacher)
'I loved seeing how Sami was settling in at school and getting on with his football. Also the fact that it shows that not all adults are willing to help you with your issues is so important. It will help young people realise, there will be setbacks when you try to stand up for the right thing, but there will always be someone who can help. This is a great book for WBD, a football story tackling the important issue of racism and standing up against those who treat you unfairly.' (Rumena Aktar, School Librarian and Carnegie Judge)
