Fresh off of her summer of historic Olympic records, meet Simone Biles: the girl who loved gymnastics so much that she changed the sport for the better.

Simone wants to be the best at gymnastics, so she practices and practices and practices. Finally, her efforts pay off and she wins her first Olympic gold medal! But, she doesn't stop there. Simone keeps practicing and improving her skills, winning more and more Olympic medals. She even invents new skills, ones that are named after her that nobody else is able to accomplish.

Told over ten stories that readers will absolutely flip over, follow along as Simone redefines what it means to be an athlete and role model.
