| book description |

Get into the Olympic spirit this summer with Gloria Goes for Gold! A perfect poolside read for young children. Gloria is from a family of synchronized swimmers. They are gifted, graceful, and even groovy, and together they ALWAYS win gold at the Artistic Swimming Championships. But Gloria dreams of a prize she doesn't have to share. So, when the Savannah Games come to town, Gloria decides to find a sport she can win all by herself! After dabbling in sprinting, gymnastics, and swimming, it dawns on Gloria that competing solo is rather lonely. She misses her family, but is it too late for her to fill the Gloria-sized hole in their team? Get ready for Gloria to make a splash, as this ambitious hippo learns that winning gold might not be the best prize at all.
