Discussion Questions:
  • What sports do you play? And why do you like them?
  • Is this fiction or non-fiction? Why do you think that? 
  • Confidence was a very important skill for Danielle. What other skills do you think athletes need to perform at their very best? 
  • World-class athletes aren’t always brilliant at their sport from the very start. What sport (or other activity) would you like to be really good at? What might help you get better at it?
