Mascots unite to support youngsters

A new book featuring football mascots Pottermus and Boomer has been launched to help encourage a love of reading.

The book, called 'Meet the Mascots', has been developed as part of Stoke-on-Trent's Family Matters programme, which works with families to improve outcomes for children.

Once printed, copies of the book will be gifted to children for families to read together at home.
