Shred Girls: Ali's Rocky Ride

 I am pleased to announce the release of Shred Girls: Ali's Rocky Ride, written by Molly Hurford, illustrated by Violet Lemay.


The inspirational Shred Girls series follows the stories of three young girls who become friends as they learn to bike competitively.

Lindsay's Joy Ride is the first book in the Shred Girls series. Lindsay, Ali, and Jen become friends as they learn to do tricks on BMX bikes.

In Ali's Rocky Ride, the second book in the series, the Shred Girls spend a summer in Canada learning to race mountain bikes.
Besides the bikes, there is a touch of intrigue...


 
...and family drama. :o)

I definitely would have enjoyed the Shred Girls series when I was young. The characters are relatable, and the stories are are well written. Molly Hurford (who is a real-life Shred Girl, as well as a yoga instructor) makes sports accessible, even to an art nerd like me.
