A Mighty Girl's Best Book of the Year!
Inspire kids to be their best selves and get involved in social change
with this stunning anthology about thirty-five amazing women in sports
around the world and throughout history.
Do you play sports? Maybe you dream about scoring a goal on the soccer
field or hitting a home run in baseball. Perhaps you're thinking about
trying a new sport, but you're still not sure.
In We Got Game! you'll meet thirty-five female athletes who played
hard, broke records, and inspired girls around the world. Some of these
athletes have retired. Others are still competing. But they have one
thing in common: they all got game! You'll read about the first woman
horse jockey to compete in the Kentucky Derby, the number one tennis
player in the world, a surfer who lost her arm in a shark attack, and a
snow boarder who landed a death-defying jump, along with many others.
These female athletes prove that girls can do anything!
