Description:

In 2012, Gabrielle Douglas made history as the first African American gymnast to win the all-around competition in addition to winning gold as a crucial member of the women's gymnastics team. But before she achieved international acclaim, she was a young girl with a host of challenges. Growing up in a family with tight financial constraints, Gabrielle quickly learned that if she wanted her dreams to become reality, she would need support from her loving family and an immense trust in God. In this autobiography, Gabrielle looks beyond the lessons she learned at the gym and shares the many leaps of faith she's had to make.
