Naomie Mensa vs. the future

£7.99

High achieving Naomie ‘Mensa’ Osei has always been the smart one in Bramrock Stars F.C. She loves all things Maths and Science, and dreams of being an astrophysicist when she’s older. With her track record of excellence and hard work, everyone believes Naomie can do it all. But with a string of challenges in Year 6, including an entrance exam, a concert performance, and a fight to keep the local library open, she’s juggling more than ever. Naomie doesn’t want to let anyone down but her cool exterior is beginning to unravel, and it seems that the harder she tries, the more the pressure is getting to her. It’s all making her very worried about the future – what’s next for her – and the Dream Team? Can she really achieve all her goals before Leavers Day?

The third story in the heart-warming, inclusive and funny Dream Team series about three big F’s: friends, football and following your dreams!

Hey! My name’s Naomie Osei, but my friends call me Mensa, cos I’m supposed to be the clever one among my friends, the Fabulous Four. Normally I’m the one with all the answers, but right now I’m struggling to figure out our future.

I mean, how do I break it to my friends that I might not be going to the same high school as them next term? Is my sax-playing good enough for the big solo at the Midsummer Concert? And can Bramrock’s top girl’s football team, the Dreamers, save our library from closing?

Since I can’t tell the future, I kind of want to press pause and stay in the present a bit longer. But as that’s impossible, I suppose I’ll have to do what I’m best at and work out the solution . . .
