Flying Fergus: The Winning Team is the latest magical cycling adventure from Olympic champion Chris Hoy, suitable for children aged five to seven.

The Hercules' Hopefuls are going to the Nationals, and not even their arch rivals Wallace's Winners can wipe the smiles off their faces. But to stand a chance of beating them and the Velociraptors (the terrifying all-girls speed squad), Wesley and Fergus will need to work together. It's Fergus's biggest challenge yet...

We ask all winners to share their child's thoughts about the book on this discussion thread. Everyone who gives detailed feedback on Flying Fergus: The Winning Team by midday Monday 24 April will be entered into a prize draw to win a £100 Love2shop voucher:

Who better to write books about "the lighter side of cycling.
Well done - SIR CHRIS HOY "

This was thoroughly enjoyed by the girls aged 8, 6 and 4. Lots of questions were asked so I know they all enjoyed it.

Thanks for the book. We loved the illustrations. DD aged 7 is reading this by herself and is enjoying it so far. She loves that the family has crazy hair. She says it is really interesting and thinks the plot is a cool idea.

Hi

D aged 7 read the book

He doesnt like reading much but he really enjoyed this book - he had a bike for last xmas and learned to ride it so he was more into reading the book as it was about something he understood.

I think the message of team work and perseverance in the book is great too

My little one loved the book so much that he is now reading it for a second time. Some of the language had to be explained but that helps with learning. It’s an interesting book.
