The Happiest Girl in the World by Alena Dillon

Title: The Happiest Girl in the World

Author: Alena Dillon

Genre: Sports Fiction


An inside (fictional) look at the world of elite gymnastics. Sera has been practically cast aside, due to injuries and the cost of success, but scrounges and digs deep in order to push just a little harder. Sera watches as her best friend, who she has always dreamt of sharing an Olympic team with, speaks up against a highly recommended doctor that makes her feel uncomfortable, and who chooses to quit gymnastics and give up on that dream. A fascinating peek behind the scenes through the experience of a single family who lives through multiple Olympic cycles, always just balancing on that edge of possibly having all of their dreams come true.
