Animal Olympics - On Your Paws, Get Set, Go!

  • Start of a new animal series for first readers and reading aloud
  • Topics: teamwork, perseverance and friendship
  • A new athlectic challenge awaits in every volume

Lenni, the little lion, could stay in his hammock all day. But when his dad gets injured, Lenni ends up as a substitute at the Animal Olympics. There he will have to compete against antelope Regina in the 103-metre run in order to save the honour of the lions! When he arrives in the Olympic village, Lenni is put up in tent zero… which doesn’t exactly sound like the winning tent. Also, his trainer turns out to be a sloth… no wonder antelope Regina trots past him with ease (even with a broken hoof.)

Lenni has to summon up all his courage not to leave again immediately. Fortunately, he finds new friends in the quirky animal troupe from tent zero: and together with the super-strong hippo Elise, mousel Digga, Franka the snake and the sensitive crocodile Carlo, he gears up for a lively competition.
