- About the Book
-
Quiet, music-loving Tommo and noisy, football-mad Smelly are both star players — he with the school band and she with the footy team. Their unlikely friendship is tested to the limit when band and team go to the city for the state-wide competitions. Tensions run high, and after a disastrous mix-up with the buses, the band turns up at the footy oval, while the footy team finds itself tackling a bunch of musical instruments. Will football-phobic Tommo manage to overcome his horror and kick a goal? Will Smelly be able to squeeze a note out of Tommo’s trumpet?
