Discover the life of Sir Chris Hoy, the cycling champion, six-time Olympic gold medallist, and eleven-time World Champion, who became an inspiration to millions.

As a boy growing up in Scotland, Chris loved nothing more than racing around on his BMX and dreaming of becoming a champion. He wasn't the fastest cyclist at first, but did that stop him? No! He quickly learned the value of hard work and perseverance, equipping him with the tools he needed to push forward. 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 honour this, for every book sold, a donation will be paid to Maggie's, a charity that helps families living with cancer.

With lively illustrations and fascinating facts, this book takes young readers on an inspiring adventure through Chris's incredible journey--showing that with passion, perseverance and a dream to follow, anything is possible!

Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling biography series for kids that explores the lives of outstanding people, from designers and artists to scientists and activists. All of them achieved incredible things, yet each began life as a child with a dream.
