Product Description

 
This picture book biography focuses on the difficult childhood and eventual success of Jim Thorpe, a Native American Olympian in the early 20th-century. Shuttled between different Indian schools--where Native Americans were taught to leave their culture behind and learn to act like white people--throughout his childhood, Jim was away from his parents for much of his young life. He was miserable and ran away often. But after being discovered by a coach in high school, Jim became a successful athlete who soon found himself in Sweden for the 1912 Olympics, breaking records in the challenging pentathlon, made up of five sports. With full-color illustrations and an extensive biography section with B&W photographs.

Professional Reviews

  Kirkus Reviews: "With his signature watercolor-and-ink cartoony characters and dramatic storytelling, Brown offers a solid look at a hero in the making...As will all of Brown's fine volumes, this will appeal to young readers with a bent toward real-life heroes."
