Product Description
It was in 1984 that Carl took the world by storm, winning gold medals in the 100-meter and the 200-meter dashes as well as the long jump. He also earned lesser medals in the pole-vaulting and high-jumping competitions. In 1992, he became the first ever to win gold in the long jump in three consecutive Olympics. The Olympic Games never lose their magic. Time and time again, on the track, on the bars, and on the ice, Olympic athletes capture the imaginations of people all over the world. The stories of young people who have struggled against adversity to earn their place in the spotlight are those that inspire us the most. The Olympic Gold! series presents these stories and honors international heroes whose dedication and discipline earned them the greatest prize in sports. Grades 3-7; 7 x 9; 64 pages; More than 30 color and black-and-white illustrations; Sturdy library binding; Glossary; Further Reading; Index
