Synopsis
As a child with a lame, brace-supported leg, Wilma faced extraordinary adversity growing up in Tennessee. Her tenacious spirit enabled her to rehabilitate her leg and to become, by 1960,the fastest woman in the world.
The Olympic Games never lose their magic. Time and time again, on the track, on the bars, and on the ice, Olympic athletes capture the imaginations of people all over the world. The stories of young people who have struggled against adversity to earn their place in the spotlight are those that inspire us the most. The Olympic Gold! series presents these stories and honors international heroes whose dedication and discipline earned them the greatest prize in sports.
Grades 3-7; 7 x 9; 64 pages; More than 30 color and black-and-white illustrations; Sturdy library binding; Glossary; Further Reading; Index
