Requests:  0 Summary:  Aly Raisman first stepped onto a gymnastics mat as a toddler in a "mommy & me" gymnastics class. No one could have predicted then that sixteen years later, she'd be standing on an Olympic podium, having achieved her dreams. But it wasn't an easy road to success. Aly faced obstacle after obstacle, including naysayers who claimed that she didn't have the talent to compete at an elite level and classmates who shamed Aly for her athletic body. Through it all, Aly surrounded herself with supportive family, friends, and teammates and found the inner strength to believe in herself and prove her doubters wrong. In her own words, Aly shows what it takes to be a champion on and off the floor, and takes readers on a behind-the-scenes journey before, during, and after her remarkable achievements in two Olympic Games -- through her highest highs, lowest lows, and all the moments in between. Aly's story is enhanced with never-before-published photos, excerpts from the personal journals she's kept since childhood that chronicle memorable moments with her teammates, and hard-won advice for readers striving to rise above challenges, learn to love themselves, and make their own dreams come true. Audience:  Ages 12-18.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library YA -- Biography B Raisman Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library YA -- Biography B Raisman Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library YA -- Biography B Raisman Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library YA -- Biography B Raisman Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 796.44092 Raisman Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library YA -- Biography B Raisman Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList
