Gymnastics Book Club
Gymnastics books
aren't just autobiographies "written" by U.S. Olympians. There's a
colorful assortment of texts out there that can enlighten or entertain a gym
fan and give them more confidence when speaking about the dynamics of the
sport. Each month I'll highlight a book or two that gymfans should be reading,
covering DIVERSE GENRES and AGE GROUPS. Note: all prices are in US dollars but
always consult with your local library before you buy a book, people! Utilize
your library's online database since many have modern features that allow you
to read books online or borrow through kindle, nook, etc.
Balancing Act
Blurb: In
gymnastics, your best friends are your biggest rivals. And the Bellevue Kips
are feeling the pressure. Everyone wants to win best all-around gymnast at
Optionals and State finals, but only one girl goes home with gold. Who will it
be?
Review: I
highly recommend this book not only for gymnasts but also for parents
especially Moms because this book tells all the feelings these girls have while
they are in the gym 20 to 24 hours a week (maybe more) if you are in higher
level. Since April Adams was a gymnast she really knew the ins and outs of what
is happening inside the gym. The sadness and happiness of each gymnast is shown
in this book. Five star for me! -Elind Carpenter, amazon customer
