A thrilling graphic novel about Wilma Rudolph, who overcame obstacles and odds to become one of the greatest track stars of all time!

When Wilma Rudolph was just a young girl, she lost strength in her leg and foot after contracting polio. Forced to wear a leg brace until she was nine, she was told that she might never walk the way she used to again. But none of this could stop her from becoming one of the fastest women in the world and winning three gold medals in the Olympics!

This is the incredible true story of Sports Superhero Wilma Rudolph, in the second graphic novel presented by Stephen Curry.
