Reading recommendations to celebrate Euro 2022

To celebrate the Women's Euro 2022, Get Suffolk Reading and Suffolk Libraries have created a list of some of our favourite football and other sporty reads.

Most of these can be reserved at libraries across the county.

We also asked some of the under-12 girls and their friends at Framlingham Town F.C. to review some of the books for us - get in touch at getsuffolkreading@literacytrust.org.uk if you have any to recommend.
