Book Overview

Heading into the 2024 Olympics, in which Simon Biles makes her triumphant return, celebrated sports journalist Dan Wetzel scores a perfect ten with this uplifting young reader's biography of the gold medal gymnast

Featuring comic-style illustrations from Marcelo Baez

For nearly a decade, Simone Biles has dazzled gymnastics fans across the globe with jaw-dropping flips, twists, and dismounts. Her record-breaking performances have catapulted her to the top of the sport and made her a hero to young people.

But well before Simone faced Olympic trials on the balance beam and rings, she confronted real-life challenges as a kid, as she moved in and out of foster care. With the support and love of her grandparents, plus her unwavering drive to make history on the ultimate stage in sports, she grew into an incredible role model and activist--and one of the greatest athletes of our time.

Filled with sports action and bold comic-style illustrations, this inspiring biography recounts the incredible life of a world class gymnast who is going for gold yet again at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Praise for Epic Athletes:

* "Wetzel knows how to organize the facts and tell a good story. . . an unusually informative and enjoyable sports biography for young readers." --Booklist, STARRED review of Epic Athletes: Stephen Curry
