Eight medals, including six gold and two bronze. Michael Phelps used the Olympic Games in Athens as his breakout event.

Michael Beneath the Surface is a first-person account of Michael's journey to manhood and Olympic gloryfrom a toddler who was afraid to put his face in the water to a student overcoming an attention deficit disorder to a son dealing with his parents divorce to a brother who watched an older sister narrowly miss making the Olympic team to the athlete who carried his nations hopes on his shoulders in Athens, and delivered against such high expectations.
