Julia Eccleshare's comment:
Age 7 + poetry. All the excitement of the big games – and smaller ones too – is captured in this anthology of poems devoted to different aspects of sport and sporting events. There’s boasting and imagination in I am the Fastest, an understanding of letting someone else win in Winning and also words of cheer for those who don’t want to take part. A perfect companion as excitement for the 2012 Olympics builds.
