Olympic ‘Wunderkind’ Tom Daley is only 13. He is one of the youngest ever Olympic qualifyers. He is going to Beijing this year to compete in diving for Britain. Wow! Imagine being 13 and competing in the Olympics! Click on his name and it takes you to a picture of him and a video clip of his diving. For his profile from last year, 2007, have a look here. Make sure you have a look at him diving and tell me what you think. If you want a book on the olympics check out Modern Olympic Games by Haydn Middleton. Remember to watch the clip and let me know what you think!
