A gallery of women’s gymnastics champions

Across profiles of 28 gymnasts, the book traces prominent figures from the sport’s earlier Eastern Bloc era through the U.S. team that won at the 1996 Olympics and on to contemporary stars Simone Biles and Suni Lee. The selection gives young readers a way to encounter women’s gymnastics through the athletes who have shaped its public history, with color photographs accompanying the profiles. Its scope connects several generations of champions rather than concentrating on one competition or athlete.
