'How do you play every game?' yelled Mick. 'Like the All-Ireland Final!'
cheered the whole dressing room. Danny Wilde wants one thing more than anything
else in the world and that's to get his GAA team, Littlestown Crokes, to the
top of the League. With the help of his dad, their coach, Mick, he knows they
can win. Things go wrong, when Danny stays with his horrible uncle and aunt,
who know nothing about GAA, can the Crokes can make it after all? Danny comes
up with a brilliant plan, but needs a whole lot of help to make it work! This
is the first title in a fantastic 'New Sports Fiction' series.

Review
'Welcome addition to sports literature for youngsters.' -- Sunday Independent
'One young sports obsessive I know sped through the story ... Praised the
back-story.' -- The Irish Times 'Young GAA fans everywhere will want to get
their hands on a copy of Little Croker.' -- Carlow Nationalist 'a sharply
executed tale with plenty of humourous characterisations and some serious
storylines thrown in' -- Inis Magazine 'O'Brien is good at conjuring up the
atmosphere of the GAA and the importance that a club has in a local community.
Will appeal to football mad boys and girls' -- Books Ireland 'a good,
intelligent, contemporary Irish read' -- Inis Magazine"
