This series is a bit cheesy but I loved it growing up because I always wanted to take gymnastics but we did not have the funds to afford it. It is fairly realistic in the level of skill that girls obtain and it gives you plenty of gymnastics whilst still allowing for real lie stories and difficulties in the books.

My cousin wrote a book called "I'm Afraid of the Vampire State Building". This book isn't it, but is close enough in title to make me look twice. Found it when I released a book at a little free library in Brewerytown (Philly).
Anyhow, I found the author's note very touching, referencing September 11, 2001. The story was kinda fun, kinda corny, but all around entertaining, in a way that reminded me of books written for kids back when I was young. And did I mention there are jokes?
