The Power of an Olympic-Sized Dream - gymnastics red mat carpet with book cover

Meet US Olympic gymnast Simone Biles

New York Times bestselling author Simone Biles is a four-time Olympic gold medalist and a three-time World all-around gymnastics champion. In 2015 at the World Championships in Glasgow, Scotland, she became the only female gymnast to ever win three consecutive all-around titles. She is also the most decorated American female gymnast, with a total of nineteen medals, fourteen of them gold. Simone, who was born in Ohio and later adopted by her grandparents in Texas, began her training at age 6. Simone rose quickly through the sport’s levels, and in 2011, she began her junior elite career at the American Classics in Huntsville, Texas, where she placed third all-around. Amid a few setbacks in the following two seasons, Simone rebounded in 2013 to claim the first of her three all-around World Championship titles. With her strong faith in God and her triumph against the odds, Simone is inspiring millions to dream big and follow their hearts.

Gr 7 Up—Nineteen-year-old Biles, Olympic gold medalist and the most decorated U.S. gymnast of all time, takes readers along her journey to the podium in this memoir. After spending her early childhood in and out of foster care, Biles was adopted by her biological grandparents. She began her gymnastics training at the age of six after a field trip to Bannon's Gymnastix, where the coaches quickly discovered that she "had what it took to go all the way." Biles describes not only her gymnastics training and career but also her personal life, including her grandmother's death, the difficult decisions she made in order to balance school and gymnastics, her "bratty period" in her early teens, and her love for her car, with its zebra-print interior. In recent years, Biles has won three consecutive world championship titles followed by her team gold and individual wins at the 2016 Olympics. Biles's narration is effervescent, showing her to be, as her brother says, "a goofy and down-to-earth kid." The tone is conversational and includes casual phrases such as "if you can't already tell" and "just kidding." She expresses appreciation for her family, friends, teammates, and coaches and frequently credits God and her faith for her success. One slight caveat: readers without background knowledge about gymnastics may not find the terminology to be adequately explained. VERDICT Essential for libraries serving tween and teen gymnastics fans.—Magdalena Teske, Naperville Public Library, IL

VERDICT Essential for libraries serving tween and teen gymnastics fans.–Magdalena Teske, Naperville Public Library, IL -- School Library Journal

Who can forget the radiant smile and inexhaustible energy of four-feet-eight, 19-year-old Simone Biles, Olympian gymnast? This inspiring and humorous memoir details how Simone, with the help and support of her family, coaches, faith, and friends, succeeded in winning five Olympic medals in 2016, four gold and a bronze. After a brief time in foster care, Simone was six when she and her younger sister were adopted by her grandparents (whom she refers to as her mom and dad). Flipping on the family trampoline and an unexpected daycare trip to the local tumbling gym sparked her love of gymnastics. Despite her rookie success, she missed being selected for the USA women’s junior team by one spot and was too young to compete in the 2012 Olympics. But success was in her future, due in part to her incredible support system---her parents even built their own gym. Simone is admirable, but it’s the unwavering support of her family and coaches that will make a lasting impact on readers. -Sharon Rawlins -- Booklist

Straight from the heart

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 14 de marzo de 2017

Compra verificada

To say that this book was amazing and truly inspirational is an understatement. This book is for all ages: kids, teens, adults.
I want to read it again and again and I will continue to take a look at it whenever I need some sort of inspiration in my life. This young woman is younger than me yet she inspires me so much. I laughed, cried and cheered reading this book. I have so, so much admiration for Simone. God willing, she will continue to break barriers and continue to be greater.

I am a fan of gymnastics but I haven't always followed it outside of the Olympics because no offense but the girls personalities are a bit too cold (for my liking). I understand this is required of their sport and this is no criticism of these young women who devote so much time and sacrifice so much for the sport but the main reason I am bringing this up is because Simone made me fall in love with gymnastics all over again. She by far has the best personality I have ever seen from someone of her caliber , notoriety and talent; I say this as someone who follows various sports a lot. She is VERY bubbly, energetic, fun, giggly, selfless and most importantly extremely humble.I know a lot of people who don't even have a 10th of her talent who are very big headed but Simone is just a normal young woman who just happens to be extremely, extremely gifted.

I named my review " straight from the heart " because I was pleasantly surprised at how candid she was in this book; she was very honest. I really didn't expect that but I appreciated it. I love the fact that she is still extremely close with all her close friends with who she grew up with . There is so much more I can say about this book but I dont like to reveal spoilers in my reviews . I really encourage people to read this book and dare to be inspired by this phenomenal young woman . I knew who she was before the Olympics and reading this book made me even more of a fan of hers. I cant wait to see what the future holds for her.

I'm normally not your biography sort, but after seeing Simone's fantastic performances, I had to read this.

And I don't regret it. The print is large (about size 14) , so it's quick and easy, but there's good humor and lessons within the stories. Simone constantly tells what she's accomplished, yet never boasts. Whether talking about how Simone was adopted by her grandparents or a funny bee incident at a gymnastics competition, it's engaging and fast-paced. I kept reading stories out loud to share with the family.

I'd even say Simone makes a good role model. Maybe some parents wouldn't like how she wanted a belly ring or didn't let her parents know about mischief she and her sister got into, but her perseverance and hard work set a good example for all readers.

An Inspiring Story and Refreshingly Positive Vibe

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 18 de agosto de 2021

Compra verificada

I love watching gymnastics, and I love Simone Biles, so I was eager to read the story of her journey from her own perspective. Simone was 19 when she wrote her memoir, and it shows in the tone and content of this book. Courage to Soar dives deep into Simone's younger years, which at her age would still be easily remembered in such great detail as what she shares here. She spends a good amount of time on how she came to live with her parents, how her relationship with her siblings evolved, and the decisions she faced as she committed to her gymnastics career, first as an elite gymnast and later as an Olympic gymnast. She shares memories of her childhood friends and childhood antics, her fears of fitting in at school and within the gymnastics community, and the hard work she poured into her craft. We also get some insight into her early influences and even her crushes/fangirl moments.

The narrative is written in a straightforward way; there's not a lot of artistry around telling her stories, and connections between chapters are lackluster. I rated a 4 star for those factors, but I still thoroughly enjoyed Simone's memoir and learning more about this amazing woman. I loved the positivity that she exudes, and I admire her unwillingness to linger on pain or sadness. She's frank about her challenges, From ADHD to injuries and even teenage angst, and even forthcoming about her bubbling emotions and penchant for tears. So I don't see the book as sugar-coated so much as I do see it representing the way she carries herself in real life. It's endearing, and part of her charm.

She is much more detailed about her early years and her time outside of USA gymnastics than she is about her time as an elite gymnast. I imagine that is partially because her career with the organization continues and because it's all still to fresh and very much a part of her everyday life for her to want to divulge any secrets. I look forward to a time in the future when she'll be ready to share these times with us. Until then, I recommend Courage to Soar to anyone who wants to hear the story of this amazing and talented athlete.

Such a wonderful and heart felt book!! Comedy, intensity, and emotion all in one place. You never know someone’s struggle and this book shows that even the people we look up to have their fair share. Very inspiring to know that she always kept sight of her dreams even when everything wasn’t perfect.This story shows why she’s called the best gymnast in the world, It’s not just about her talent but it’s a testimony to the person she was raised to be.
Beyond happy I took the time to read this masterpiece!

J'ai adoré ce livre. J'ai découvert la vie de Simone Biles à travers ce livre, qui fut pour moi une source d'inspiration. Son enfance fut très triste, certains passages m'ont beaucoup ému. On s'attache très vite à son histoire du début jusqu'à la fin du livre (sa passion pour le trampoline, ses souvenirs joyeux d'enfance, ses grand-parents aimant leur petite-fille qu'ils ont adoptée, ses amies gymnastes comme Aimee qui l'aide à reprendre confiance en elle pour effectuer un straddle back sur des barres asymétriques de gymnastique...). Chaque chapitre débute par une très belle citation qui donne confiance en nous, l'envie de réaliser nos rêves, ne pas avoir peur, perséverer, l'importance de prendre soin des gens que l'on aime... Il y en a 19. Sa carrière de gymnaste est remarquable. Elle raconte dans "Courage to Soar" ses plus belles réussites (les médailles d'or des Jeux Olympiques), mais aussi les périodes qui furent douloureuses, Simone Biles persévére toujours. Elle a réussi à accomplir son rêve, et son livre témoigne de son courage. Sa personnalité est très attachante, je recommande ce livre à tous, car son parcours de vie est remarquable. Les photos au milieu du livre illustrent le contenu du livre. Ce livre est en anglais et se lit très facilement.
