At sixty-one pages, this autobiography of World Champion is a very quick read geared towards a younger audience. The book offers Jill's perspective of the women's competition at the 1988 Winter Olympic Games in Calgary. The book's message is a great one for its target audience - that the Olympics aren't about medals alone. We don't really get to know much about Jill's backstory before the Games - but this was, after all, a young adult book about her experiences at the Games - not an in-depth biography geared towards adult audiences.
