What happens if you chase a dream . . . and then that dream comes true?

When Zak isn’t scoring goals for his local football team, Redwood Rovers, he is endlessly working on his freestyle videos with his dad. And when one of those videos goes viral, his whole life changes. As the views come rolling in, everyone wants a piece of him. A major sports brand wants him to shoot an advert with his footballing heroes. Suddenly his face is on every sports channel. But as his celebrity status grows, Zak begins to realise that online fame isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Tekkers is an amusing and entertaining story about the power of social media with the core message that followers are great, but friends are even better.
