What is My Bum is on the Run about?

It is race day, and Red Pants Boy is determined to win. But his bum is slowing him down! He tries all sorts of ridiculous solutions, from balloons and kites to a rocket-powered boost. When those ideas fail, he begins a series of bum-strengthening exercises, joined by some unexpected helpers. At last, he enters a cross-country race with his little dog by his side. Will his training be enough to help him reach the finish line first?
