Fit

By Steve Cole

Award-winning author Steve Cole expertly captures one boy's cringe-worthy attempt to pole-vault his way to love in this witty and relatable super-short read.

Ryan hates running and jumping, and after a disastrous experience in the long jump back in Year 6, joining the school athletics club is the last thing he would normally do.

So why does he sign up?

The answer, of course, is Tala.

Unfortunately, Tala competes in the pole vault--a sport Ryan has never tried before. But determined to impress her, he decides to give it a go.

How hard can it be?

You can probably guess the answer to that. But will sporting disaster also lead to failure in love...?

Particularly suitable for readers aged 11 and up with a reading age of 6.
