What is Ode To Tennis about?

Delightful rhyming poem of a player in a tennis lesson. Perfect little gift book for tennis players. The poem highlights a player's joy and frustrations during a tennis lesson. At the start of the lesson, the player enjoys the lesson as her balls effortlessly fly across the net and drop into the court. "I whip it, I flip it, The ball flies deep with spin. No doubt Raphael Nadal Is my identical twin." Her tennis instructor continues to give her instruction. She begins to lose confidence. "ESPN won't ever feature me. I'm an old, casual player. No matter how much I practice my serve and my lobs, My hair goes grayer and grayer." The pro continues to practice with her and provides advice from The Inner Game of Tennis by W. Timothy Gallwey. She hits a winning shot against this experienced pro. Ode to Tennis is delightfully illustrated by Mario Barrera. The illustrations capture the euphoria and frustrations as players learn new tennis strokes.
