Jesse Owens by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara explores the life this Olympian who participated in the Games in Hitler's Germany, and who stood against racism on many fronts. I appreciate that the author didn't shy away from portraying the racism faced by young Jesse (and adult Jesse). The end of the book contains a more detailed look at Owens' life, using language suited for much older readers. Inspirational and educational both, this entire series is great! I read this with my cubs. We love this series! Highly recommended! ***Many thanks to the Netgalley & Quarto Publishing for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

This time around Jesse Owens is the star. This young boy grew up to be an Olympic runner! From a small town start, to the big leagues, this guy is truly incredible!
I had heard of Jesse Owens but didn't know his background, so this was yet another great book to read. I find that this series makes non-fiction and learning so easy and fun, and as an adult I love them!
Overall, this is another great book! I'd highly recommend picking up this book for your youngsters!
Four out of five stars.
