Reviews
Grade 6-9–This objective and honest book describes the Olympic medalist's childhood struggle with polio, her resolve to walk normally again, and her emergence as a star athlete during high school. The author mentions incidents of racism, Rudolph's status as an unwed mother at age 17, and the pressures she faced while trying to support her family. A section at the end discusses her legacy and the impact she still has today. The writing is clear and engaging. Black-and-white photographs of Rudolph and her teammates and coach, as well as other notable African Americans such as Jackie Robinson and Martin Luther King, Jr., are scattered throughout. A solid addition.–Kristen Oravec, Cuyahoga County Public Library, Strongsville, OH
