Zusammenfassung

Tells the story of a girl who lost a race - who has always lost all races. PE is a ruthless aspect of school experience which shapes us all and leaves its traces in unexpected and lingering ways. Part of the "Yellow Jersey Shorts" series, this book explores the ecstasy, but mostly the agony, of school sports and PE.

Not a Games Person Zusammenfassung

Not a Games Person Julie Myerson

PE. You either loved it or hated it, looked forward to it or dreaded it, but we've all been forced to do it. Sometimes a note could get you out of it, but the following week there you'd be again, writhing on a cold and dusty gym floor in your underwear. Skinny, timid, knock-kneed Julie Myerson was 'not a games person', according to her teachers. In this touching, funny and occasionally devastating exploration of her childhood, she now asks the question: why not?
