Cricket season is coming – so what better time to get stuck into a new book series inspired by Australian sporting legend Nathan ‘Garry’ Lyon?!

In the second book, Garry is the most exciting new cricketer to play for the Youngstown Under-16s in years. But can the talented off-spinner help his team take on the most feared XI in the competition?


MEET THE REAL GARRY!

A smiling bald man with a short beard, wearing a white shirt, is centered in front of an orange starburst-shaped background, evoking the excitement of a cricket celebration.

Australian International cricketer Nathan Lyon showed remarkable talent from a very young age, and he’s been on a whirlwind rise to the top since his Test debut in 2011! The passionate player used to work as a greenkeeper at Adelaide Oval, and has two nicknames – ‘Nice, Garry’ and ‘GOAT,’ which stands for Greatest Of All Time! Not bad, eh?!
