Summary:  "Brittney Griner, the dunking phenom shares her coming-of-age story, how she found the strength to overcome bullies and to embrace her authentic self. Possessing a combination of size and athleticism never before seen in women's basketball, she is equally famous for making headlines off the court, for speaking out on issues of gender, sexuality, body image and self-esteem. A star player with the Phoenix Mercury of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA), she has heard every vicious insult in the book, enduring years of taunting that began in middle school and continues to this day, but has learned to remain true to herself, rising above the haters. Standing 6 ft 8 in (2.03 m) tall, she was the first NCAA basketball player ever to score 2,000 points and block 500 shots"--Provided by publisher. Genre:  Autobiographies. Other authors:  Hovey, Sue.
