This book is about
It tells you about lots of ways people play and do sport. There's a page about the olympics now and how it used to be, one about video games and some information about virtual gaming and how that's being developed and loads of other cool stuff. Gives you loads of facts and figures in little bits so I can understand it easily. I really liked this book and it's a non fiction book.

My favourite part of the book is
The page about virtual reality with the new helmet called cocoon that they are developing. I hope one day I can play something like that.

I would also like to say
