After a rough start, Sam Kerr gets into the swing of playing soccer for the Knights. But there' s so much to learn - new rules and positions and strategies . . . Lately it seems like soccer is the only thing she can think about. When Sam finds out she' ll have to wear a dress (gross) and dance in front of a hundred people (terrifying) at her cousin' s upcoming wedding, she feels like she' s all but had enough. So why isn' t her best friend Indi supporting her? And why is school bully Chelsea suddenly a bit . . . nice? Will Sam be able to mend her friendships - and score a few goals in the meantime - before it' s too late?
Sam Kerr is the captain of the Australia women' s national soccer team - the Matildas - and a leading goal scorer for Chelsea in the English FA Women' s Super League. She burst onto the W-League scene as a 15-year-old playing with Perth Glory. In 2016 she played for the Matildas at the Olympics in Brazil, and she was the top goal scorer in the 2017 Tournament of Nations. Since joining Chelsea in 2019, Sam has positioned herself as one of the best female strikers in the world. She was named 2018 Young Australian of the Year. Fiona has written the children' s series The Super Moopers, Trolls and Miraculous. She was head scriptwriter on ABC3 TV' s Prank Patrol and wrote/co-starred in the TV comedy shows Flipside, Comedy Inc. and SkitHouse.

Their adult fiction novel The Drop-off was released in 2020 and its sequel, The Pick-up, is due out in 2021. Fiona also co-authored Sharni Layton' s biography, No Apologies, and Marcus Bontempelli' s picture book, both released in 2021. For more information on Fiona Harris visit fionaharris. com.
