a view of The OLYMPIANS


 This book is written about the history of the Olympic Games.
 The origin of the Olympic Games is Greece. The ancient Olympic Games were different from the modern Olympic Games in many ways. For example,though today there are three winners who are given a medal for each event,there was only one winner for a prize in ancient times. Also,what the winners were given was not a medal but an olive wreath.
  The Olympic Games have changed over the years. However,there is one thing which has always remained: the games still celebrate sports in the exciting Olympian way.

    What a nice blog! Which events do you want to watch for the London Olympics? There are many countries that are going to participate but I wonder if there are any countries that are not going to send any participants?
    What's your favourite event?
