Climbing to the top is not always easy. And really, it’s not easy even if you’re repeatedly pulled up by a cable car or a ski lift. In our story, one persistent girl made it. Her name is Veronika, do you want to meet her?
This is a story inspired by the true story of the first Slovak successful alpine skier Veronika Velez-Zuzulová. A story about her love for skiing and the mountains, about hard work and the power of friendship, about big dreams that require big sacrifice.
Read about a girl from the city, from a block house, who became a world-class skier. And she did everything to make her dreams come true. And a bonus! If you want to learn more about alpine skiing, you’ve come to the right place. Open the book and let yourself fall… into fresh snow.
