From rugby legends, national heroes and true friends Rob Burrow and Kevin Sinfield, Try is a heartwarming story of friendship between two young boys and what it truly means to be a hero.
Meet friends Rob and Kev. They play games together, laugh together, and go to school together. They have lots of other friends. But Rob always has Kev. And Kev always has Rob.
When their teacher, Ms Phelps, asks the class to think of their hero, Kev knows exactly who to pick: he's fast and strong and the captain of the Roaring Bears rugby team! Rob, however, feels unsure. Do heroes really have to be big and strong or save people from fires? Before long, Rob and Kev start to realize that perhaps being a hero isn't all about strength and muscles--maybe it's much, much more than that.
Celebrating affectionate and caring male friendships and brought to life with gorgeous illustrations, this is an important story for young readers, especially young boys, that shows the strength of friendships based in love and vulnerability, and that there are many ways to be strong.
