![]() ![]() The illustrations are done in a silly, cartoon style. Jamieson has created an underdog that everyone will be rooting for, but who is also doomed to fail. He may get bruised and battered, but bounces back. Unfortunately, it sometimes takes some natural talent too. ![]() Jamieson portrays Boomer as an eternal optimist, someone who has been told that all it takes to succeed is to practice and do your best. So he put on his costume for the final event, and off he went! But then he saw his mother on the news saying how special he was and how much she loved him. Then came the diving event, and Boomer knew that he had the best dive in the animal world: the cannonball! But even then, he lost! Boomer quit before the final event, storming off the field. He lost at weightlifting, hurdles, high jump, wrestling and more. Boomer was heart broken until he realized he had other events to compete in. He lost, of course, much to the delight of the news. The next day, he lined up for the race against cheetahs, rabbits, and greyhounds. He practiced hard and at night dreamt of Olympic victory. Boomer has decided to be the first pig ever to compete in the Animal Olympics and gained attention of the news. ![]()
