Produktbeschreibung
Stuff Happens is an important new series for boys aged between 7 and 11 about everyday challenges. Created by series editor, Susannah McFarlane, and written by established authors Tony Wilson, Andrew Daddo, Philip Gwynne, Will Kostakis, Oliver Phommavanh, Scot Gardner, Justin D´Ath and James Roy, each book features a different character and follows them as they overcome a particular everyday challenge. It explores those everyday struggles in life that boys can sometimes be reluctant to express: quarrels with mates, a bad day at school, fear of disappointing mum and dad, rejection and not fitting in. Stuff Happens. Real-life stories for boys. Suitable for beginner and newly confident readers. Stuff happens sometimes. Everyday stuff. At school, at home, with sport, with mates. For Tom it happened during a tennis match. Tom Connors is a very good tennis player. When it comes to hitting a ball over a net he can do it better than almost anyone else his age, including the state-ranked Johnny Vargese who trains at the same club as Tom and also goes to Monvale Primary. Tom´s problem is that he struggles to control his nerves in a match, particularly on his serve. His left arm seems to have a mind of its own and he can´t even toss the ball up straight, let alone hit the serve powerfully into a corner of the box like Johnny can. Tom was fine until 6 months ago when he held match point against Johnny in the club championship, only to serve a double fault and lose the match. He thinks about this loss all the time, and ever since his serve and game have got progressively worse. Tom must find a way to overcome these nerves. Can he find a way?
