Why read it?
1 author picked Serena Williams as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is one grand slam of a picture book biography, in my opinion.
The author’s use of the first-person narrative made me feel like I was part of Serena’s journey to success. I learned so much about her that I did not know, like how she started playing with tennis racquets for grown-ups. I love how much emphasis is placed on the importance her family played in her success on the courts.
Serena is truly an inspiration both on and off the tennis courts.
From David's list on The best picture books on the rocky road to stardom.
