Before Wilma was five years old, polio had paralyzed her left leg. Everyone said she would never walk again. But Wilma refused to believe it. Not only would she walk again, she vowed, she'd run. And she did run--all the way to the Olympics, where she became the first American woman to earn three gold medals in a single olympiad. (Goodreads)
I have a difficult time trying to change my description of David Diaz's illustrative style. I could probably open a book now and determine whether he is the illustrator. I do like how the black outlines of his artwork makes the details of his illustrations clear and stand out. His work is very striking and bold even though it is similar throughout the books he illustrates.
