TASKMASTER

GIANT CHALLENGE

Words: Alex Horne, Ali Struthers and James Blake-Lobb.

Little Alex Horne, Taskmaster’s Assistant, here. Did you know that the Taskmaster is almost a giant himself, standing at a massive 6 ft 8 inches? That’s 207 cm! ‘That’s tall’ I hear you shout. Yes. Yes it is. At 6 ft 2 inches, I am also quite tall myself, but nowhere near as tall as him. That’s why I’m called Little Alex Horne and not ‘Mr Ginormous’ or ‘Long Tall Ally’ or ‘Stretch McAwesome’ – any of which would be my preferred nickname if the Taskmaster would allow it. But enough about me, are you ready for a GIANT challenge? The activity begins when you start reading, so best of luck AQUILAnauts!

Turtles have been around for more than 200 million years. They can be found on almost all continents and in nearly all of our planet’s oceans. They are extremely strong and can famously live for a very long time. Maybe it’s no wonder that the idea of a giant World Turtle has become such an important part of so many ancient and modern stories.
