About this ebook
Brenna Huckaby was diagnosed with bone cancer at 14 years old and had her right leg amputated above the knee. That could have been the end of her sports career. Instead, the former gymnast took a different route. She fell in love with snowboarding and went on to become a gold-medal Paralympian. Learn how she overcame obstacles to make it to the top of the podium in this inspiring biography.
