The perfect gift
A sure-fire hit for any budding cricket fan, Lord’s have teamed up with You Are The Star to create the only personalised children’s book set at the home of cricket.
The story begins at home as your child is inspired to take up cricket and to dream big. With a little help from friends and family, and a dazzling display at a local cricket club that goes viral, they receive a miraculous call-up to join the England squad for a vital test match.
It’s late in the match, with England still needing a few elusive runs and wickets tumbling… could it be the moment you’ve all been waiting for?
The only officially licensed children’s book from Lord’s, it’s the perfect gift for any young fan, and who knows? It might just inspire them to go for their wildest dreams.

There are many elements that can be personalised to create a wonderfully unique gift:
The Star. You choose their name, age, appearance, right-hand bat / left-hand bat, hometown and country.
The Best Friend. You choose their name, appearance and relationship to the star (brother, friend etc.)
The Grown-up. You choose their name (e.g. Mummy, Daddy, Granny, Grandpa, etc.) and appearance.
The Video. You have the option to record a video message that will always be accessible via a scannable link inside the book.
And that’s it! A brilliantly illustrated adventure will be created that inspires the lucky receiver to dream of playing in front of a packed Lord’s crowd.
