- The happiest girl in the world : a novel / by Dillon, Alena,author.;
"For Sera Wheeler, the Olympics is the reason for everything. They're why she trains thirty hours a week, starves herself to under one hundred pounds, and pops Advil like Tic Tacs. They're why Sara's mother, Charlene, hungry for glory she never had, rises before dawn to drive Sera to practice in a different state, and why their family scrimps, saves, and fractures. They're why when Sera's best friend reports the gymnastics doctor to the authority who selects the Olympic Team, Sera denies what she knows about his treatments, thus preserving favor. Their friendship shatters. But Sera protected her dream--didn't she? Sera doubles down, taping broken toes, numbing torn muscles, and siphoning her family's resources. Soon she isn't training for the love of gymnastics. She's training to make her disloyalty worthwhile. No matter the cost."--Back cover.- Subjects: Sports fiction.; Psychological fiction.; Gymnasts; Olympics; Families;
