**The multimillion-copy bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series**

Discover the life of Sir Chris Hoy, the cycling superstar, six-time Olympic gold medallist and eleven-time World Champion.

As a boy growing up in Scotland, Chris loved nothing more than racing around on his BMX and dreaming of becoming a champion. Even though Chris wasn't the fastest cyclist at first, it didn't stop him, and he learned the value of hard work and perseverance. With determination, courage, and relentless effort, he went on to become one of the greatest cyclists of all time.

But Chris's story doesn't end at the finish line. After retiring, he became an author, writing books to inspire children and young athletes to chase their dreams. In 2024, he showed remarkable courage once again, by openly sharing his cancer diagnosis and offering hope through his strength. To honor this, for every book sold, a donation will be paid to Maggie's, a charity that helps families living with cancer.

This inspirational book also features dynamic illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the athlete's life.
