"I jump into a sand pit for a living"

Jonathan Edwards, World record triple-jumper

Who comes first

Return to the book list for this category.

Chris Hudson, BRF Oxford 2011.

Inspiring stories from the history of the games, the book is a cross curricular classroom and assembly resource for UK RE teachers. The book develops themes around respect, excellence, friendship, courage, determination, equality and inspiration - based on the stories of Wilma Rudolph, Shane Gould, Jesse Owens etc. When the writer ask me what Eric Liddell was thinking while running his 1924 Olympic final, I was left wondering how he knew.
