Gymnastics Girl Maya's Story: Becoming Brave (Go! Go! Sports Girls (6 Book Series)) Paperback – June 1, 2014

My almost 3 year old daughter was signed up for and awaiting the start of her first gymnastics class when she got this book. I'm sure the timing plays into it, but she LOVES this book. We read it multiple times each day for about 2 weeks after she received it. Since then, I'd say we read it about once a week. The book teaches gymnastics terminology and the importance of practicing and being brave. It's truly a great book for anyone interested in gymnastics or probably for any other girl in the 3-6 year old age range.

My daughter loves this book. We initially thought it would be all gymnastics based, but it was more broad than that, focusing on becoming brave in life and using that in gymnastics. My daughter has been insisting we get all of the others in the series and she insists we read it nightly. A great addition to our bookshelf!

Cute story. My granddaughter enjoyed "reading" it to me. She is 4 and loves gymnastics.

My little gymnast (6) sometimes feels nervous before an important meet, and this book bolsters her spirits. She loves to read it for homework, too. I like the way the author tied in overcoming fear in other parts of life, not just gym.

Cute book. I got this for my daughter for Christmas (she is 4). I really almost cried while reading it but that's not uncommon for me:) it's a cute story about being brave and kind. My 7 yr old son even listened while I was reading it (even though he said he wasn't paying attention--he liked it).

Cute book but I thought it would be a little longer I guess I didn't look at the description very well......my bad. My daughter still loved the book and it came in one piece.

The seller was very good - the book arrived on time and is in excellent, brand new condition. But the story is stupid. I would have to guess that someone who is NOT a gymnast wrote it. She obviously just threw in a few "facts" here and there to make it sound more credible. I bought it for a little girl who is just starting out as a competitive gymnast and giving her this book would actually be insulting. I'm not returning it, it didn't cost enough to make it worth the effort, but I would definitely NOT recommend it for anyone remotely involved, or interested in gymnastics. Personal preference - I also didn't like the way the girls' feet were disproportionately large. Their feet looked as stupid as the story was stupid to read. No idea what I'm going to do with it, I would not want anyone who might be considering gymnastics to read it so I can't even donate it to the library. Recycling bucket I guess.

Got this as a small Xmas gift for my daughter whom is 9 years old and loves gymnastics. Books is short, easy to ready and I figure she would like it. Time will tell.Overall I have no issues with the book, price or delivery time.
