Story
It was the team finals of women's gymnastics in the 2012 Olympics, and McKayla Maroney was on top of her game. The 16-year-old US gymnast was performing arguably the best vault of all time, launching herself unimaginably high into the air and sticking a flawless landing. When her score came, many were baffled: 16.233. Three-tenths of a point stood between her and a perfect score. If that vault wasn't perfection, what was?

Narrator does a disservice to book
Reviewed: 08-19-16
The narrator does the authors work a disservice in my opinion. She consistently mispronounces athletes' names making many of them unrecognizable. Furthermore she sounds like a computerized voice or a robot. Too bad because the book is pretty good.
