Summary:

In the first picture book about Roggie, titled Roggie the Lion Finds Happiness, we got to know a not quite so ordinary lion who found himself having to use a wheelchair after being involved in a bad accident. His path to complete independence was a tough one, but thanks to his perseverance, the brave lion made it through and made his life happy again. In the second picture book about this interesting lion’s life, the author decided to focus the story on sport for the disabled, as Roggie is a passionate athlete. Since he’s a keen cyclist who likes to get out as much as possible, Roggie was once again cycling outside one day when he met Eddie, a lynx who was also riding a special bicycle. The bike is made so that you can pedal it with your arms! It turned out that Eddie was the assistant coach for disabled athletes and he was testing out a bike for them. The two became close friends and often went cycling together.

In this story, Roggie tells us all about the Paralympic Games. His friend, a lynx called Eddie who is a coach for disabled athletes, takes him to the venue of the Paralympics and shows him all the special and interesting things about parasports.

Roggie learns about all the many sports, such as goalball and boccia, and finds out that blind athletes can also ski!
