Description:
The Wonder Team and the Forgotten Footballers
Loosely based on one of Leah Williamson's big inspirations, the Dick Kerr Ladies and their brave protest against the ban on women's football, The Wonder Team and the Forgotten Footballers is a fun adventure that comes from the heart.
When Leah discovers a mysterious time capsule with her two best friends, she opens up a whole new world of adventure! Transported a hundred years back in time, Leah, George and Mimi make an unexpected discovery – women’s football has been banned!
Along with their new friend Dot, Leah and the team must work together to make sure the all-important Championship Cup final still goes ahead. But with a mysterious figure working hard to ruin the team’s chances, Leah is in a race against time to put the clues together and catch the culprit before it’s too late!
The Wonder Team and the Pharaoh’s Fortune
When Leah and her friends are magically transported to Egypt, they realize they've also been taken back in time – they're stuck in the year 1900! And, even worse, their school bully has somehow travelled back with them!
But when they meet Khalid and his aunt Amina, an Egyptian archaeologist who's on an expedition to discover a mythical amulet, Leah and her friends are excited to join the hunt.
With a mysterious figure working to sabotage Amina, The Wonder Team will have to work together to uncover the clues and dodge booby traps as they search for the pharaoh’s treasure. Can they solve the mystery before time runs out, or will the secret of the pyramids stay hidden forever?
The Wonder Team and the Rainforest Rescue
Leah and her friends have been magically transported to the rainforests of Tanzania! Back in time and far away from home, the Wonder Team have to use all their skills to uncover the mysteries of the forest and find a way back to the present.
But there's danger lurking in the rainforest. A gang of poachers are after the local chimpanzee tribe, and it's up to Leah, Mimi, George and their new friend Bupe to find a way to save the animals from capture, before it's too late.
The Wonder Team and the Space Race
After suffering an injury on the football pitch, Leah is bored of resting at home. Her friends, Mimi and George, know that another adventure in time will cheer her up! Travelling back to 1950's America, the Wonder Team find themselves right in the middle of the Space Race.
When one of the lead mathematicians goes missing, Leah and her friends must use all their detective skills to find her and stop the rocket launch ending in disaster.
The Wonder Team and the Football Phantom
Leah and the Wonder Team are back! This time they've been magically transported to 1970s Mexico and something spooky is going on . . .
A phantom has been seen terrorizing the local football stadium and the organizers are threatening to cancel the Women's World Cup. Can Leah, Mimi and George solve the mystery in time to save the tournament?
