Every fox in the whole town, in the whole country just about, is a football fan. And we all have an impossible dream.In a cosy den under a garden shed lives a family of foxes. They love to watch football all foxes do. But their favourite team keeps losing and losing, and it seems like things will never look up.That is, until Daddy Fox finds the ghost of a king, buried underneath a car park. A king who wishes only to be free.Release me, says the Ghost King, and I can do anything. Just tell me your greatest wish. For these football-loving foxes, might everything be about to change? |
