March 4 is World Book Day and what better day to mark the occasion than with a copy of Ben Herring's new children's book, Boris Baloo?
The book is being sold in aid of the Matt Hampson Trust and is inspired by Tigers prop Boris Stankovich. It also features characters based on teammates Martin Castrogiovanni, Marcos Ayerza and Dan Hipkiss.
Herring, Stankovich and Geoff Parling gave the first reading to more than 100 supporters at the book’s launch in the European Suite at Welford Road last Sunday and supporters snapped up copies.
