Transfer Trouble
by Keith Brumpton

The news comes out of left field and leaves the other Dino FC players stunned - they'll be rudderless without their star player. Has Danny scored an own goal this time?

Keith Brumpton
Author, illustrator, and creator of CBBC series M.I. High, Keith Brumpton knows what will appeal to children, and the Dinosaur FC series is guaranteed to do just that. As well as creating the acclaimed spy series 'M.I. High', now in its fifth season, he has written for many other top kids television shows including '64 Zoo Lane', 'Balamory', 'Pablo the Little Red Fox' and also a kids musical – Dinosaur Rock. Keith is married to an Australian and lives in Scotland. He is a big football fan and supports Torquay United: checking the football scores, he says, is the only thing that can distract him from writing!

Good for young readers with a passion for dinosaurs.
The Literacy Trust football book reviews
What could be better to capture young boys' attention than a story about a football team set in Jurassic times with dino characters? ...Packed with cartoon-style illustrations - more pictures than words, this book is just the thing to get boys (and football-mad girls) keen on reading. Lots of action, plenty of dialogue and snippets of humour - great fun.
