Summary:
This story is a picture book form of the Williams sister's childhood and the different problems they overcame. It talks about how when they were growing up people laughed at their dad's dreams of them becoming popular and famous tennis players. However, this did not stop them from trying and succeeding in this field. Their parents would practice with them daily on the courts just for them to accomplish this.
I would use this book in an upper elementary due to the length of the book, however it has a great message of not giving up nor becoming what people think of you.
