Synopsis

It might seem that the most surprising part of my journey would be going from a neglected girl, living in a foster care home, to an Olympic gold medalist. But it isn't. The real miracle is how I got there—or, better yet, who took me there. I want to tell you a story. My story. I want to tell you how my faith and my family turned my boldest dreams into reality. Embracing a dream can give us the courage to fly.

American Olympic athlete Simone Biles invites readers on an inspiring journey through her extraordinary life, revealing the determination and courage behind one of the most celebrated athletes in the history of gymnastics. From her early, challenging years in foster care to the pinnacle of global sporting glory, Biles shares her story with honesty and grace, demonstrating not only her physical strength but also her tremendous mental resilience. By taking readers behind the scenes of her demanding routines and rigorous training, Biles offers a moving and motivating reminder that true courage is not shown in victory, but in the willingness to get back up after every fall.
