The Olympic Games always inspire people to embark on their own personal marathon. No training required - just a television.
It's also a time when parents and teachers are bombarded with questions about the games.
Flaming Olympics is a great resource for children wanting to know more about the Games. It's presented in a very accessible style and the text is short and snappy and interspersed with cartoons.
Olympic fans might like to try their own sporting challenge with the Flaming Olympics Quiz Book ($16.99).
