Excerpt: 
Before Nadia Comăneci, it was believed by Olympic judges that no sports person could ever achieve perfection – a score of 10 – in a gymnastic routine. As far as they were concerned, there was no such thing as perfection; there were always little things that could be improved. The judges were very tough in their assessments and were convinced that nobody would ever make them change their minds. 
But then a very young Comăneci got up on the bars and performed the most perfect routine the judges had seen in their lives. Comăneci received the first 10 in the history of the Olympic Games – and it would not be her last! 
It was quite an amusing moment – the scoreboards were only programmed to show three digits and couldn’t show a 10. Comăneci’s score had to be shown as 1.00, and the Dutch judge in charge of the scoring had to wave his arms and shout from the table: “It’s a 10, it’s a 10, not a 1!” 
Fortunately, these days scoreboards are prepared for perfection.

Animals

Ever wondered how animals sleep? This book has all the answers! When and where does a shark sleep? How long does a gorilla sleep? In what position does an elephant sleep? Believe it or not, there are not a lot of books that answer these questions. Animals need their sleep just as much as people do. But they sleep in very different ways than we do... some sleep while flying or swimming; some just need a minute's rest at a time, and others sleep with half of their brain still awake! The octopus sleeps like a log and a sleep-deprived ant can cause chaos. Kangaroos sleep under trees or in the grass, or even digging shallow holes to beat the heat, and sperm whales sleep with one eye open. This book shares hundreds of fascinating facts about animals' behavior: from how they sleep and hunt, to how they reproduce and communicate. Animals include: octopus, bee, ant, shark, seahorse, tree frog, butterfly, flamingo, crocodile, bat, toucan, swift, sloth, gorilla, giraffe, sperm whale, bear, elephant, lion, and kangaroo.
