Kari’s Gold

When we talk about awesome gymnasts, we think of those who have done amazing things and won big at the Olympics! Like Simone Biles, Nadia Comăneci, Larisa Latynina, Olga Korbut, Svetlana Khorkina, Shawn Johnson, Mary Lou Retton, and Kohei Uchimura. They have done flips and jumps that make everyone go ’Wow!’ Their hard work and super skills show us that if we try our best and never give up, we can do remarkable things too! These impressive gymnasts have not only won medals but also made lots of people cheer and feel inspired. They show us that if we love what we do and practice, we can be amazing too! Anything is possible in the world of gymnastics. Marjorie Hope is an accomplished author, entrepreneur, advocate for global connection and the author of the book ＂Kari’s Gold＂.
