Summary:
In the first picture book written by and based on real-life
tennis
star Bianca Andreescu, a young athlete learns how to work through life'
s
toughest moments through inner strength and
meditation
. From the moment she wakes up,
Bibi
is very busy. Even before school begins, there are cartwheels to do, world records to break (38 minutes balancing a spoon on your nose), and her
dog
,
Coco
, to snuggle.
Bibi
's mother suggests she try a sport, but nothing feels right. Until she tries
tennis
. On the court, she feels strong and powerful. Her serve is like lightning, her backhand booms like thunder and her forehand is as fierce as a hurricane. But one day, everything changes when she is injured on the playground.
Bibi
is heartbroken, sad, frustrated and angry - she decides to quit
tennis
! But her mother, with a little help from
Coco
, shows her how to meditate and dispel the self-doubt and negativity.
Bibi
learns to focus on all the things that make her grateful and happy. And when her body is ready to go back to
tennis
, so is her mind. "Now every morning, I picture myself strong and powerful on the court. Just me and the fuzzy green ball."
