About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Strong and Tough written and read by Rico Hinson-King.

_______________

‘A very touching and honest story … Rico and Nick make a great team!’ – Jacqueline Wilson
_______________

An empowering adoption story by eleven-year-old Premier League Young Writer of the Year Rico Hinson-King.

There is a kid. Let's call him Charlie.

On the outside he looks like every other football-mad boy of his age. But he isn't ...

A story of hope and resilience, this gentle, inspiring book tells the tale of Charlie, a little boy who was taken into care when he was very small. Charlie dreams of finding his forever home to share with his sisters. Sometimes he feels scared. Sometimes he wants to scream and cry (and he does, just a little). But he is strong. He is tough.

Strong and Tough is by the amazingly talented ten-year-old Rico Hinson-King. Rico, like Charlie, found strength and resilience along the journey to find his forever family (and played lots of football along the way!). Rico is a Junior Premier League footballer with a knack for words too, who wrote his story so that other children going through similar circumstances can feel less alone, and to encourage empathy in others.
