A great read about perseverance for pre-teen girls. It's encouraging to see books about young girls that are active, engaged, and driven. I like that the heroine of the book learns not to take adversity personally. I think the depiction of progress is realistic as well - for girls learning the struggle and importance of hard work I would definitely recommend this book!
