Kickin’ It: the Richie Mo’unga Story

Reading Warrior has a new sports-life biography to help celebrate Uike Kātoanga’i ‘o e Lea Faka-Tonga – Tongan Language Week. Kickin’ It: the Richie Mo’unga Story is the inspirational story of Richie’s journey to rugby stadiums around the world. But it’s more than a rugby story. It’s about the power of self-belief. The need to make sacrifices. The joy of seeing your dreams come true.

“Wow just wow! I can’t believe how cool that all looks! I’m so thankful and grateful for you sharing my story. It really made me emotional reading it and just knowing how proud my dad would be.” Richie Mo’unga
