The football adventure that started it all!

Simon Magee is twelve and mad about Aussie Rules. He's even got a nickname – 'Specky' – because he takes such spectacular marks. But his family hates footy… So why is there a baby photo of him dressed in footy gear? Determined to find out the truth, Specky uncovers more than he ever bargained for.

Specky Magee is a one gulp book to be read fast and easily . . . Australian Book Review

It's encouraging Aussie Kids to read and enjoy Aussie culture . . . Eddie McGuire, the Herald Sun
