Celebrated picture book biographer Jeanette Winter shares the story
of champion tennis players-and sisters-Venus and Serena Williams.
Before they were famous tennis stars, Venus and Serena Williams
were sisters with big dreams growing up in Compton, California. In
the early mornings, they head to the tennis courts, clean up
debris, and practice. They compete in their first tournament and
they both win. From there, the girls' trophy collection grows and
grows. Despite adversity and health challenges, the sisters become
two of the greatest tennis players of all time. This inspiring
story of sisterhood, hard work, and determination is perfect for
budding athletes or any young reader with a big dream.

Whether you hit it, bounce it, run at top speed or ride in or on it, Infomojis: Sports is all about exploring sport in a fun and engaging way. Core scientific areas of investigation are covered, such as how streamlined F1 cars are designed to reduce drag and why athletes' bodies need muscle power to compete!
