At just 10 years of age, British skateboarder Sky Brown became the youngest professional skateboarder in the world. Instead of using a coach, she learns her tricks online. She's not afraid to take risks and push limits. Even after a horrific fall left her unresponsive with several skull fractures and a broken left hand and wrist, Brown still remained determined to become the best skateboarder in the world and went on to claim a Bronze medal for Team GB at the Tokyo Olympics! Read this book to find out more about this incredible rising star.
