Book Hero thinking about your next read

Rampaging Rugby is the first in the Stupendous Sports series, which aims to do for sport what Horrible Histories did for Year 6 history with Mr Simkin! Full of cartoons, player tips your coach won't tell you, irreverent explanations, fascinating facts and practical instruction. With a foreword and pro tips by former All Black Conrad Smith.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Each chapter will have cartoons, player tips your coach won’t tell you, irreverent explanations (accurate where it matters), fascinating facts and – yes – funny stories. The central aim is to teach kids about the sport but with a light touch and just as much about the spirit of the game as the rules.

Rampaging Rugby offers a delightful way for young readers to engage with the sport, making it both educational and entertaining. Whether they're interested in the technicalities or the spirited culture of rugby, this book provides a comprehensive yet fun-filled guide.

About the Author

Robin Bennett has obsessed over rugby since losing both his front teeth in a ruck aged 12. He is an author and entrepreneur who has written several books for children and on business. He founded The Bennett Group aged 23 and has run over a dozen
successful businesses. In 2003 Robin was recognised in Who’s Who as one of the UK’s most successful business initiators.

Matt Cherry grew up writing and drawing about monsters before he was told to stop wasting pencils and get a job. He now lives on the Kent coast with his wife and two pet children where he still writes and draws everyday… only this time with a pen.
