Publisher Description: Girls can't run At least that is what they thought back in 1928, until Betty Robinson set a new world record at just sixteen years old She was the first female to take home a gold medal for the United States in track and field, and overcame many obstacles throughout her life. Her story reminds us to believe in ourselves, break through barriers, and be the change that we want to see in the world. A portion of proceeds from this book goes to support The Traincatchers Foundation. |
