5.0 out of 5 stars Great insight! A superb bio with lots of intriguing info., February 24, 2002
By A Customer
This book gives the WHOLE story about her life and competition leading up to the Olympics gold. It tells about private emotional times in her young life and the training and competitions. There's a nice appendix listing all her placings and some web URLs. I'm glad I got this collector's item before they ran out!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!!!, November 14, 2002
It is much better than the other Sarah book by Ruth Ashby! It starts off with Sarah at the 2001 World Championships and chronicles her life better than any other Sarah book could!Then it tells a LOT about her main competitors and ends telling how prepared she is for the 2002 Olympics (which she won!!)
I would definitely give it five stars in my book!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome First book!, April 21, 2002
By Jen (The sneezy Peach, native New Yorker) - See all my reviews
Hi, I saw the book online and so I decided to try and go find it at the local bookstore. I was actually there to see if they had the May issue of International Figure Skating which I was very disappointed to find out they didn't carry. I went ahead and bought the book and I was so happy to get my hands on it, I read the whole thing start to finish in about an hour, stopping to look at the pictures of course :)

The book overall was great! It had her ups and downs thru the years, her fight with her mom's illness, a summer she broke her hand and nearly all her competitions. It had a great look at the skaters Sarah has faced and how she did in her programs. She works so hard and is so dedicated! This is a great book to just sit and read, but its also a wonderful collectors items just like the wheaties I found today hehe :) Thanks for listening~
