Jack Gallagher. A veteran sports journalist and one of the world’s foremost figure skating experts Very inspiring history, not only for figure skaters Gabriela Bristot Boff Goodreads “Character, obstinacy, hard work… You can’t even count the times the author of the book uses these words. And that is because no other words can describe Sasha better - the girl who changed the world of figure skating forever. And us as well. I’d really like this book to be read not only by Sasha’s fans but by as many boys and girls as possible, because Sasha’s example proves that if you really want to, you can achieve anything. The main condition is to work hard. And first of all, to work on yourself”.
