This is more than a sporting autobiography -- it is an uplifting, life-affirming story of incredible success against massive odds written by one of the great heroines of our time.
Tanni Grey Thompson captured the heart of the nation last year after winning four gold medals at the 2000 Sydney paralympics. In this disarmingly frank account of her life she talks candidly about her childhood and living with spina bifida and the realisation of her dream to become the top-class athlete she is today.
Tanni is Britain's best-known disabled athlete, having performed at world-class level for the past 13 years.The year 2000 was an exceptional year for Tanni. She got an OBE, third place in the BBC Sports Personality of the Year and was BBC Wales Sport's Personality of the Year.
Seize The Day by Tanni Grey-Thompson is published in Coronet paperback at £7.99.
