Raised in poverty in the state of Sao Paulo, Pele was taught to play football by his father - as they could not afford a ball they played with a grapefruit, or a sock stuffed with newspaper. Pele tells the incredible story of how Edson Arantes do Nascimento, nicknamed Pele, grew up to become the greatest player of the 20th century.
Ultimate Football Heroes is a series of biographies telling the life stories of the biggest and best footballers in the world and their incredible journeys from childhood fan to superstar professional player. Written in fast-paced, action-packed style these books are perfect for all the family to collect and share.
