It's time to kick off another time-twisting adventure with Leah Williamson, captain of the Euro-wining Lionesses!
After suffering an injury on the football pitch, Leah is bored of resting at home. Her friends, Mimi and George, know that another adventure in time will cheer her up! Travelling back to 1950's America, the Wonder Team find themselves right in the middle of the Space Race.
When one of the lead mathematicians goes missing, Leah and her friends must use all their detective skills to find her and stop the rocket launch ending in disaster.
The Wonder Team and the Space Race is the fourth book in the bestselling series written with Jordan Glover and illustrated by Robin Boyden. Don't miss Leah and her friend's other adventures in The Wonder Team and the Forgotten Footballers and The Wonder Team and the Pharaoh's Fortune .
Leah Williamson plays as a defender for Arsenal and the Lionesses, England Women's Football team. In the summer of 2022 Leah captained the Lionesses to victory in the UEFA Women's Euro 2022. As the first captain in the men's or women's senior teams to lead England to a European victory, Leah is uniquely positioned to motivate and inspire younger generations, and her first book, You Have the Power, is an empowering guide for children. Jordan Glover grew up with her nose perpetually lodged in a book. As an adult, living in Cambridgeshire with her husband, son, cat, and dog, not much has changed. When not searching for magic and adventure between the pages of her current read, you can find her scribbling away or studying for her masters in Creative Writing with the Open University. The Wonder Team and the Forgotten Footballers is her debut novel. Robin Boyden is a freelance illustrator based in Herefordshire in the West of England. In 2007 he graduated from University College Falmouth with a First Class Honours Degree and soon after completed a Masters in Art and Design. Robin works in the picture book and middle grade fiction market and has previously worked as editorial illustrator. He has twice been selected for the AOI Images annual and has worked for numerous clients in the publishing and editorial sectors worldwide. His author-illustrator debut Gerald Needs A Friend came out in April 2021.
