She's Got This af Laurie Hernandez
Author is Olympic gymnast. Note and photos of author at the end.
Very cute and a really quick, light read. I think I prefered [b:Courage to Soar: A Body in Motion, A Life in Balance|31847558|Courage to Soar A Body in Motion, A Life in Balance|Simone Biles|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1473611232s/31847558.jpg|52516411] because it got into a little more detail about training and the process of becoming an Olympic athlete, but this was still an enthusiastic and sweet story.
She’s Got This
I really enjoyed this book, and the woman empowerment and self-confidence it builds. It is about a little girl who wants to become a gymnast, but after falling off the balance beam, she becomes discouraged and wants to quit. Her family encourages her to stick to it and she regains the confidence in herself to return to gymnastics. This book shows that you can do anything that you put your mind to, and sticking to something can lead to great success.

After seeing a gymnast on TV, Zoe decides she wants to try gymnastics too. She loves the balance beam best and is good at it - until she falls. Her family gathers around her to encourage her to try again, reminding her about how she would get back up when she was learning to walk, and sharing stories about their own failures and trying again. Then Zoe's mom takes them all out for ice cream to celebrate Zoe's first fall: "Each fall makes you better. Now you have to try again."
The family has light brown skin and dark hair. The coach is blond. Other kids in the gymnastics class appear black and white.
