Book review7 Nadia Comaneci

Nadia was the first gymnast to get a parfect ten out of ten in gymnastics at the Olympics Games. And she was only fourteen when she did it. She began learning gynastics with Bela Karolyi when she was sox, and when she was eight years old she became Romania's best gymnist. Comaneci was born in Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej Romania, as the daughter of Gheorghe and Ştefania-Alexandrina. Her pregnant mother was watching a Russian film in which the heroine of the story's name was Nadya, the shortened version of the Russian name Nadyezhda .She decided that her daughter would be named Nadia, too. Between 1976 and 1981 Nadia won eighteen gold medals. But in 1981, Karolyi, her trainer and now her best friend, went to live in America. She wasn't very happy. She wanted to go to America too, because Romania wasn't an easy country to live in at that time.Comaneci was known for her clean technique, innovative and difficult original skills, and her stoic, cool demeanor in competition. On the uneven bars, Comaneci performed her own release move, a kip to front salto.
