Things begin to go wrong for Jaz when her mum moves out, leaving her family behind. Determined to fix everything, she creates her own girl's football team to be the star her mum always wanted. First, she recruits a brilliant new group of friends to join her team. But after a shaky start, seven very different personalities to manage, and no one at school taking the girls' team seriously, football stardom feels a long way off. Can Jaz keep everyone - and herself - out of trouble long enough to convince her mum to come home? A relatable, inclusive story about families, unlikely friendships and girl power.

Hey! My name's Naomie Osei, but my friends call me Mensa, cos I'm supposed to be the clever one among my friends, the Fabulous Four. Normally I'm the one with all the answers, but right now I'm struggling to figure out our future. I mean, how do I break it to my friends that I might not be going to the same high school as them next term? Is my sax-playing good enough for the big solo at the Midsummer Concert? And can Bramrock's top girl's football team, the Dreamers, save our library from closing? Since I can't tell the future, I kind of want to press pause and stay in the present a bit longer. But as that's impossible, I suppose I'll have to do what I'm best at and work out the solution . . .
