“Even before I competed in the Olympics, I always wanted to write a book,” Douglas told the magazine, adding it will detail how much she and her family overcame to achieve her Olympic dream.

Douglas, who took home two Olympic gold medals, left her family in Virginia when she was 12 years old to train with a new coach in Iowa.

The book, “Grace, Gold and Glory, My Leap of Faith” will be published by the Zondervan division of HarperCollins in December.

“Gabby Douglas shines even more brightly than her Olympic Gold Medals. The reason is her inner strength and strong faith,” Lisa Sharkey, Harper’s vice president said in a statement.
