About this book

Test cricket asks for the hardest virtues of all: endurance, discipline, honesty, and the patience to last when others tire. This collection of 21 short stories uses the longest format of the game to teach children its deepest lessons - delayed gratification, resilience after setbacks, humility, controlling what you can control, building good habits, and leaving things better than you found them. Each invented young cricketer meets a real test of character, learns one clear lesson, and is matched with a true Real Champion fact-box about a great who lived it, from Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman to Sachin Tendulkar and Mithali Raj.

Written for readers aged 9 to 18 and the parents and coaches who shape them, these are quiet, powerful stories about the slow, unglamorous work that builds both great cricketers and good people. Every tale closes with two Think About It questions ideal for family or classroom discussion, and the book includes a young cricketer's glossary, a Meet the Real Champions reference, and a guide for parents and coaches. If these stories help a child in your life grow in patience and integrity, an honest review of just two minutes would help another family discover the book.
