Gymnastics

At the moment I am reading a very good book called Gymnastics.  I know that, that is kind of a bland name, but that is all it is called.  I love gymnastics, but I was just looking through these books by an author that I like, Dan Gutman, who has written many books that I've read.  But this was strange because there are barely any books about gymnastics.
This book is about the history of gymnastics which could get a little boring, and about the gymnastics from the past that completely changed the sport or has a relation to someone that changed the sport or just is a great gymnastics that has a good story.  Well the book eventually gets into how everything works.  It is kind of funny because at the start of the book he made this paragraph about gymnastics talking with gymnastics talk.  It is completely crazy talk because it is not understandable to a non-gymnast.  Then you start to learn about what basic skills are which is hard to memorize if you can't visually see it.  But overall this seems like a great book that I will definetly finish.
