Michelle Kwan

Michelle Kwan by Sam Wellman is a very interesting book.The thing that kept me interested in the book was that it tells almost everything that people need to know about Michelle and all the years she ice skated.The main characters are Michelle Kwan,her sister Karen,her father Danny,her mother Estella,and her skating coach,Frank Carroll.I found the book filled with suprises.Michelle started skating when she was 5 years old.She had to work really hard to win the National figure skating title.I like the book because I found out lots of things that I had never known about Michelle Kwan.I would recommend this book to everyone who likes to skate.

Being a huge Michelle fan, I picked this up while at another rink at a skating competition to add to my collection, and I was not disappointed. Although geared more towards the younger fans (9-12), it features black and white photos of Michelle I have not seen in any other book and is a good overview of this talented skater, although it lacks coverage of the 1997-98 season and beyond. If you are a big Michelle Kwan fan, this is a definite must-have for you!
