Eleven-year-old Riley Liston is the smallest kid at sports camp. Most of the other boys are twelve, and a few are even thirteen, so Riley gets pummeled in strength-and-accuracy games such as basketball and softball. He's better at speed-and-endurance sports, but even when he succeeds, his efforts often go overlooked. Then the competition for the Camp Olympia trophy comes down to the swimming finals, and Riley trains harder than ever before, looking to prove that a little kid can make a big difference.
