However, he went on to win an incredible four gold medals at the Berlin 1936 Olympic Games. This biography, ideal for kids aged 8-11, charts the major events of Jesse's life; from his childhood growing up on a farm in Alabama before his family moved to Ohio in search of better opportunities, to the beginning of his running career and years as a world record-breaking student athlete while working part-time jobs, all the way to the Olympics and beyond. 600 10 $a Owens, Jesse, $d 1913-1980 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Track and field athletes $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a African American athletes $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Olympic athletes $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Ager, Charlotte, $e illustrator. 830 0 $a DK life stories. 941 $a 10 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012024333.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722064000.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20210527010550.0 952 $l YLPC314 $d 20210504015841.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20210428011812.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20210130011109.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20201215011447.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20201202010058.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20201103011253.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20201027010055.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B5379064181911EBAC39F3C45DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
