WNBA standout Caitlin Clark is taking her talents from the basketball court to the page.
On Thursday, the Indiana Fever guard unveiled the cover of her upcoming children’s picture book, “EXTRAordinary! A little EXTRA to achieve BIG dreams.”
The book, scheduled for release in November, is based on Clark’s life, one she says is “like few others.”
Clark also announced Thursday that pre-orders for the book are now available. “GREAT NEWS! I wrote a picture book,” he wrote on X. “Pre-order your copy.”

Random House Books will publish the project, which will feature illustrations by Adriana Predoi.
Clark noted that he was inspired to create the book by a quote that was displayed in his bedroom growing up: “The difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary is the little EXTRA.”
Clark also credited the people who supported his basketball journey as a source of inspiration for the project.

A series of injuries sidelined Clark in 2025, limiting the NCAA’s all-time scoring leader to 13 games in her second WNBA season. Last year’s injury problems included a groin strain followed by an ankle bruise.
Clark was active for four of the Fever’s first five games this season before being knocked out Wednesday against the Portland Fire.
