Just Add Water: My Swimming Life

Katie Ledecky is a phenomenon! The record-breaking US swimmer has nine Olympic golds to her name, 21 world championship gold medals (the most in history for a female swimmer), and 16 individual gold medals at the World Aquatics Championships. Ledecky is also the most decorated American woman, the most decorated female swimmer and – at the time of writing – the fifth most decorated athlete in Olympic history. Not bad, considering that she’s not even 30! Ledecky made her international debut when she was 15 at the 2012 London Olympics and her brilliance was obvious to her rivals and the spectators who watched her. So, what makes her a great champion? Just Add Water is Ledecky’s thrilling autobiography in which she explains how she sets her goals, the importance of having a positive mental outlook, and how she maintains her dominance in a sport where success depends on every millisecond.
