Kimberley Kickers (Book 3): Ash Flies High

Merrison, Carl/ Hustler, Hakea/ Campbell, Samantha/ Johnson, Ash

I reach out and snatch the footy…
I sense where the goals are…
I position myself, put the ball on my boot for a snap kick and it sails through the goals.
It’s my FIRST GAME in AFL and I just scored my FIRST GOAL.
I’ve made it.

I’m (Little) Ash Johnson and the dream I had to play professional Aussie Rules footy since I was a kid in outback Halls Creek has finally come true.

If you like the sound of:
Water balloon battles! Mud and cows! Playing Aussie Rules footy! Waterhole diving!

… then you will LOVE my story!

A footy adventure story based on Ash Johnson’s life by award-winning authors Carl Merrison and Hakea Hustler.
