She Persisted: Simone Biles

Simone Biles was raised by her grandparents and had to overcome many hardships as a child. After trying gymnastics for the first time on a field trip from elementary school, Simone discovered it provided the perfect outlet for her energetic body and busy mind. She continued with the sport, working hard and reaching professional levels — and went on to become the most decorated US gymnast of all time, while still modeling setting boundaries to protect her mental health. Through it all, she inspired kids everywhere to follow their dreams.

In this chapter book biography from the She Persisted series, written by NAACP Image Award-winning author and Coretta Scott King Honor recipient Kekla Magoon, readers learn about the amazing life of Simone Biles — and how she persisted. With black and white illustrations throughout and a selection of tips for how young readers can change the world like Simone Biles, this is an empowering introduction to a trailblazing American athlete.
