Summary

What happens in the story?

Every four years the Olympic Games take place,but when and how did they begin?What sports can athletes win gold,silver and bronze medals in? Find out the answers to all of these questions and many others in this informative and interesting book.

My favorite scene in the story is 

Torch relay is one athlete runs with the torch and then gives it to another athlete,who continues until the next athlete,and so on.

I find this book easy to read because it is the world sports festival.
