Do you like riding a bicycle? Can you
imagine being told you can’t ride a bike because it could
give you “bicycle face”? In the book, Born to Ride,
by Larissa Theule, all Louise Belinda Bellfower wants to
do is ride a bike like her brother. But he says that
if girls ride bikes, their faces will get so scrunched up
they’ll get stuck that way FOREVER! Louise Belinda strikes
out to discover the truth. Will she prove to everyone that
she can ride a bicycle just like anyone else?
