Description

Marcus absolutely positively LOVES footy. But there's something he loves even more than footy ... his Nanna Nancy! Nanna is always there for Marcus. So when Marcus accidentally kicks his football into Nanna Nancy's favourite garden gnome, he panics! Owning up to his mistake might land him in trouble. But lying to his Nanna doesn't feel so good, either ... From Western Bulldogs' captain and three-time team Best & Fairest winner Marcus Bontempelli comes a heartwarming story about honesty, family .... and of course, a little bit of footy.
