What does the Pageticker team say about Kane Rules?

Kane Rules is an energetic, comic-style biography that makes Harry Kane’s journey easy to follow, especially for football-mad early readers. The quizzes, stats and jokes keep things lively, while Kane’s early setback at Arsenal gives the book a useful message about persistence. It is more of a celebratory introduction than a detailed biography, but it should score a goal with young fans.
