As this is a football mad family, it is hardly surprising that the fourth boy is Bobby and the fifth child, a girl, Charlton (or Charlie). Bobby has Down's syndrome, and he and Charlie are a special team. So when Bobby is chosen to give flowers to the Queen when she visits his special school, Charlie is determined to help him get the goalie kit he wants so desperately to wear for the presentation. Their ways of trying to do this are funny and original, but it is only when Charlie writes to Bobby's favourite goalie (the 'mountain' of the title) that his longed-for kit appears. A short book with large print and Foreman's delicious black and white illustrations, this will appeal greatly to football mad beginning readers. Bobby is warm and lovable and a very ordinary boy.
