Solid short biography of Jesse Owens. I like the images selected, and I think the book does a fair job chronicling both his triumphs and his missteps.

I had never heard of this man before. He was a crazy good Olympian during the time of Hitler.

I never really knew much about Jesse Owens, and I found this biography very interesting as well as informative. I loved how it stopped the story to include background knowledge of certain events, people or places. I think by doing that it keeps the reader engaged and allows for connections to history. I would recommend this book to older elementary students, but it would also be a great series for any high school classroom library.
