Summary from Usborne
Tara loves gym and spends every spare moment practising in her garden.
When she joins the Silverdale Gym Club, Tara's catapulted into their
star team. But with so many new things to learn- like backflips,
somersaults and handsprings, how will Tara ever catch up with her
talented teammates?
Nayuleska's thoughts
This is exactly the type of read I enjoy. Tara works hard to merit a place on the squad, but thanks to a jealous gymnast she is plagued with self-doubt. She proves that working hard on something cwn take you far, be it gymnastics, writing, or whatever your talent is. Never give up! This cheerful read had me in happy tears at several points.
You can find out more about the lovely Jane on her website.
