Disappointingly light on detail
I bought this looking for a book on gymnastics for my niece to teach her drills and techniques. Sadly, it didn't have what I was after. It has a few pointers and covers different types of gymnastics but looked a bit simplistic to me - I think any child who's done gymnastics for a few years won't get much out of this.
Might be OK if they are starting out and want to get enthusiastic - lots of photos but is short and lightweight (in both senses).
