It's an amazing story of perserverance, passion and breaking down barriers.
This fascinating, well-researched, non-fiction picture book tells the tale of the first woman to officially run the Boston Marathon. Kathrine was born a runner, but had to fight for every opportunity to do so at a time when running wasn't "fitting for women".
Along with colorful and emotive illustrations, I also enjoyed the fascinating back matter that includes details about Kathrine's efforts to support and encourage women runners as well as little-known facts about the Boston Marathon.
Run, or maybe just walk (like me), to your local bookstore to check out this book!
