She contracted polio in her early years and her doctors said she would never walk again. But Wilma persisted with treatment, and she recovered her strength by the age of 12. At school, Wilma showed a talent for basketball and sprinting, earning the nickname "Skeeter" (mosquito) as she ran so fast. Wilma was in college when she went to the 1960 Olympics. She not only won gold in sprint events, but also broke world records with her sprinting skill. She had beaten polio to become an Olympic champion. She is a huge inspiration to many women in sports around the world. This moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the athlete's life"-- provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Rudolph, Wilma, $d 1940-1994 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Women runners $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Runners (Sports) $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 700 1 $a Flower, Amelia, $e illustrator. 830 0 $a Little people, big dreams. 941 $a 8 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015115.0 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20220719014323.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722061532.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200828010049.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204094750.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20200121011424.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110081159.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20191211034506.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EB2639A27B8D11E99D2AC64597128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
