Toby can hardly wait for Sports Day. Sacks to hop in, races to run and a shiny cup for everyone! But nobody is allowed to get ahead, and the finish line has vanished. What sort of race is that? Toby wants to bring back the finish, even if someone else reaches it first. Pull on your trainers for a muddled Sports Day full of wobbles, hope and another go.
