Max is mad about sport. As he gets up, has breakfast and heads off to school, he is dreaming of competing in world class sporting events.

This is a lively and fun approach to sport, and a very inclusive picture book showing disabled children and children without disabilities enjoying different sports together in a natural way. The sports include football, rugby, athletics, cricket, diving, discus throwing and cycling.
