What a great little book! A short read that is chock-full of life lessons from the perspective of a young volleyball player. Should be required reading for young athletes (or any athletes, really!)

Although I’m not the target audience for the book, I really enjoyed reading it. As a young adult it still touched me and made me love the beachvolley game even more. Highly recommend to any young aspiring athlete!

DNF. Heavy-handed attempt to describe kids playing Beach volleyball in Hawaii. Odd mix of real people as fictional kids. Perhaps this is intended as a young adult book, but still.
