In "Sports", you will find: key information - everything from the man who runs as fast as a car to the Olympic games for pigs; intriguing bite-size facts - high divers hit the water at an amazing 34 mph; real-life stories - like the man who can pull a 207-ton airplane for 1 minute and 16 seconds using only a length of rope; 'Big word alert' glossaries - clear and straightforward explanations of difficult words such as 'acrobat'; and, stunning photographs and detailed diagrams.Â
