About the book:

What’s the big deal about pickleball? Amy Johnson wondered the same thing.

Life Lessons in Pickleball is her answer. Funny, warm, and relatable, it’s a book about what happens when you stop taking life so seriously and let an unlikely sport, now the fastest-growing in America, reveal something deeper about friendship, boundaries, joy, and the unexpected gift of beginning again.

Each chapter begins with a moment on the court and expands into how we connect with others, navigate change, and find our footing again, reminding us that it’s never too late to get in the game.
