Review: Wonderful book that appeals to two generations - I love this new book about one of my all time, heroes, Nadia! As a child of the 1970s, I remember her flying around on the uneven bars - defying gravity - and wanting to be just like her. Now, as the mother of a young gymnast, it is great to be able to share with her this story of someone so pivotal in her sport, and in my own childhood. The messages expressed by the book - that young Nadia channeled her natural energy and abilities into athletics, but that she still had to work hard and overcome setbacks to win those perfect scores - are important ones in today's highly competitive world of youth sports. Great timing with the Rio Olympics around the corner! The words are engaging and easy for young readers to grasp, and the illustrations are beautiful.
Review: Uplifting story of a young athlete perfect for all ages - I was so happy to share this inspirational story of Nadia with my sons. We really enjoyed reading it over and over, and they were as excited by her success story as I had been while watching her perform decades ago. I loved Nadia's energy and her youthful impatience to get things moving. Reading this book makes you want to go out and play! I like to share interesting biographies and life lessons about perseverance; this story is perfect and the engaging colorful illustrations are delightful. This book is our new favorite and one I will share with friends and family - as well as my pick to read to my son's class as mystery reader :)
