SUNSHINE SUPER GIRL - THE EVONNE GOOLAGONG STORY

by Andrea James
A grimy old ball, a racquet made from a wooden fruit box, a pair of borrowed shoes … then the world at her feet. This is the heart-warming story of how
Evonne Goolagong Cawley—our Evonne—rose from humble beginnings in an outback farming town to become a world champion tennis player by the age of just 19.

With a tin wall for a court and a steely determination, little Evonne hits and hits and hits her way out of rural New South Wales and onto the world stage. On the way she must battle prejudice and homesickness and test herself to the very limits.
