Gritty Gabby Rides a Mountain Bike is an inspiring picture book that empowers young girls to be brave, try new things, and discover what they're capable of.
Gabby loves riding her bike around the neighborhood, but mountain biking seems scary... until a high school girl visits her school and shares how much fun the trails can be. The videos of girls her age riding through the woods don't look dangerous at all, and Gabby is inspired.
When she gets a mountain bike for her birthday, Gabby begins an adventure full of nature, friendship, and fresh challenges-all at her own pace. She learns trail etiquette, enjoys group rides, practices safety, and discovers the joy of being outside.
As she keeps riding, Gabby realizes she's growing. She's gaining confidence, courage, and resilience. Mountain biking has ups and downs, just like life. Sometimes she feels like she's flying. Sometimes she feels like crying. But Gabby learns that grit is about getting back up and believing in herself.
