Description
Wilma Rudolph was a sickly child--if her siblings had a cold, she had double pneumonia. When she contracted polio, everyone was sure she would never walk again. Yet Wilma was so determined that she did learn to walk, and soon ran. This moving biography explores Wilma Rudolph's journey from Clarksville, Tennessee all the way to the Olympic Games in Rome, where she won three gold medals.
