Myra in the Middle

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

A charming junior novel about finding your place in your family - and on the soccer field.

Seven-year-old Myra likes maths, football and things staying the same. She lives with her mum, dad, Muthashi (grandma) and big sister, Anya. Her world flips upside down when her family welcomes a new baby. Myra is now a middle child - and everyone knows middle kids always get forgotten. On top of that, Myra tries out for the school's soccer team, only to be put in the midfield. She can't show off her skills when nothing exciting ever happens there!

What will it take for Myra to feel marvellous in the middle?
