Description: Perhaps one of the best tennis players in history, Serena Williams has dominated women's tennis since her first Wimbledon Championship win in 2002. The Women's Tennis Association has ranked her the number one singles player in the world seven times from 2002 to 2017. This informative book provides a balanced biographical survey of Serena Williams. Chapters describe the life and career of the famous tennis player, from her rise to the top of the tennis world, to her competitive spirit against her sister Venus, and her return to professional tennis.

Review Quotes: Review: Serena Williams "Junior high librarians will find this series to be a solid addition to their biography section. The tales about each person gleaned from a broad variety of sources show students the value of balanced reporting. The vivid color photos and user-friendly layout of the books as well as their moderate length will provide students with a thorough yet undaunting look at people they care about who are in the news."--VOYA October 2007
