Theo can’t sit still. His restless spark constantly makes him move: running from corner to corner, rolling over, jumping… But what Theo loves most is running! Just like his mom, for whom running is not just a sport but an essential part of life. Theo knows a lot about runners, yet when he prepares to take part in a children’s race, many questions come to his mind. What does it take to become a champion? How do you learn to always be first? And most importantly — when and how should he reveal to his mom his amazing secret that explains why he is such a “fidget”?..
This is a tender and cheerful story about running, love, friendship, and support, about discovering yourself and the world around you. The narrative is complemented by interesting educational inserts.
In the educational inserts, the author Olesya Keshel-Isak — an amateur runner who has already run over 5,000 kilometers, including 3 international marathons in Berlin, Chicago, and New York — tells future runners about:
- how to choose comfortable running shoes;
- what pulse is, how and why it should be measured;
- what runners should eat and drink to be fast and healthy;
- what marathons, half-marathons, and children’s races are and how to participate in them.
