Kid athletes : true tales of childhood from sports legends / stories by David Stabler ; illustrations by Doogie Horner.

Stabler, David, (author.). Horner, Doogie, (illustrator.). Cross, Pete (Actor), (narrator.). Findaway World, LLC. (Added Author).

Summary:

Forget the gold medals, the championships, and the undefeated seasons. When all-star athletes were growing up, they had regular-kid problems just like you. Baseball legend Babe Ruth was such a troublemaker that his family sent him to reform school. Race-car champion Danica Patrick fended off bullies who told her "girls cant drive." And football superstar Peyton Manning was forced to dance the tango in his school play. Kid Athletes tells all of their stories and more. Other athletes include Billie Jean King, Jackie Robinson, Yao Ming, Gabby Douglas, Tiger Woods, Julie Krone, Bruce Lee, Muhammad Ali, Bobby Orr, and Lionel Messi!
