Danica Patrick's father was a motorcyclist
Danica Patrick loved to race as a child. She was "high-side," at 140 mph, when she crashed off her bike. She suffered a third degree burn in her calf. Even though she is an accomplished biker, she doesn’t have a motorcycle permit. Matt Myers is concerned about her safety as well as her future, even though her father supports her racing career.
Danica Patrick began her career in open-wheel racecar racing, not like her famous father. In fact, she wasn't able to drive a car stock until her early twenties. Patrick raced go karts during her first days in the professional world. Later she was promoted to IndyCar Series. Her father drove her to race tracks in her early career to see if her daughter would do well. Bobby Rahal, a former Indy 500 champion and co-owner of a thriving racing team, agreed to let Patrick race in lower tiers until she had proven herself. Patrick's parents admired her karting abilities and valued her perseverance. Their career was however short-lived.
Her mother was a cheerleader
"Her mother was a cheerleader." This book's title speaks volumes. It is set in 1960s New Orleans and the novel is set during the desegregation of schools in the city's Ninth Ward. Louise is thirteen years old and lives in a boarding house with her mother Pauline. Louise Morgan has been inseparable since their earliest years and is the first student of color in the school.
The novel tells of the events leading to civil rights. The book takes place during the 1960s, and provides an interesting look at what the people in those times thought about race and civil rights. The characters of the book are everyday Americans who lived through the era of the 1960s. This book will allow readers to better understand 1960s attitudes towards race, gender, and sexuality.
