Everton Football Club is moving to an impressive new stadium, and a group of cones are eager to find out how an ambitious idea to build a venue on the Liverpool waterfront became a magnificent reality.
‘Cones and the New Stadium’ is an adorable children’s story which sees ‘Cones’ characters discover Everton Football Club and its iconic new stadium and retells the transformation of a disused dock to a new breathtaking arena on the banks of the River Mersey.
The book, which is raising funds to support Everton in the Community’s life-changing delivery enables the next generation of Blues to understand the memories and emotions attached to Goodison Park before showcasing the meticulous process of Everton’s waterfront home for children of all ages to learn.
Written by author Chris Madeley as part of the ‘Cones’ series, we hear from a loveable pair in Grandad Cone and ‘Conelad’ who embody the generations of families who will pass on their memories of the Grand Old Lady. We find out more about Liverpool’s rich heritage and how key historical items have been preserved as part of the stadium build.
