Get inspired by Olympic medalist Simone Biles's story in this winning, easy to read children's book.

Fresh off of her summer of historic Olympic records, meet Simone Biles: the girl who loved gymnastics so much that she changed the sport for the better.

Simone wants to be the best at gymnastics, so she practices and practices and practices. Finally, her efforts pay off and she wins her first Olympic gold medal! But, she doesn't stop there. Simone keeps practicing and improving her skills, winning more and more Olympic medals. She even invents new skills, ones that are named after her that nobody else is able to accomplish.

Told over ten stories that readers will absolutely flip over, follow along as Simone redefines what it means to be an athlete and role model.

Each book in this collectible series is an exciting combination of the perpetually popular 5-Minute stories format and nonfiction biographies for young readers genres. The series' unique approach, with each book containing ten exciting stand-alone stories in the life of a genius plus bonus informational content on the science, craft, and history behind each story, creates an engaging reading experience for young readers. 5-Minute Genius explores a broad range of noteworthy individuals with STEM appeal for readers ages 6-9, from polymaths like Leonardo da Vinci to artists like Frida Kahlo, environmentalists like Jane Goodall and athletes like Simone Biles to activists like the Suffragettes.
