Throw Like a Girl: Discovering the Body, Mind and Spirit of the Athlete in You

Summary: Where's Cheerleading???
Review: I found out about this book a year ago in one of my magazines. It was going to be about girl athletes and they were looking for some young authors. I had a winning essay and it is in the book. I got to have an early copy of the book and I am very proud to have added to it. It talks all about female athletes and their struggles, hard work, and triumphs. It also has great ideas to help you if you're a female athlete. This book includes interviews with some really cool woman sports stars as well. This is a really awesome book and girls of all ages, athletes or not, would enjoy it.

Summary: Good Book, Bad Opinions
Review: I read this book yesterday and I really liked it! I only found one flaw. Under the part where it tells you the pros and cons of solo and team sports, I was dissapointed when cheerleading wasn't listed. I am a cheerleader and believe me, cheerleading IS a sport. We go ALL YEAR not just a season. Now, I am used to people overlooking the fact that cheerleaders are athleats but what really ticked me off was that they stated that pool (you know with the stick and the balls and the green table) was a solo sport. If cheerleading isn't a sport then POOL is DEFINATLY NOT A SPORT TOO!!!!

Summary: Where's Cheerleading???
Review: I was just sitting down to write this review when I saw another review just like mine! I was also curious as to where the cheerleading section was. Cheerleading is SO a SPORT. Wheather people want to believe it or not. I am a cheerleader and I have cheered for about 6 years. I put in more work to cheerleading in those 6 years, then my older sister put into basketball, which she has been playing for 7 or 8 years. If this book considers BOWLING a sport, the made a huge mistake leaving out cheerleading!
