Overview
All over the world, athletes break records and defy odds to compete in the games—and some were kids themselves when they started dreaming and training! In Kid Olympians: Winter, discover the childhood stories of legends such as:
- Michelle Kwan, who used to sleep in her skating clothes to get a few extra minutes of sleep before her lessons at dawn!
- Cindy Ouellet, one of the few athletes to have competed in both the Winter and Summer Paralympics.
- Apolo Ohno, who started skating because he thought the speed skaters looked like superheroes!
With kid-friendly text and full-color illustrations, the book will inspire readers 8 to 12 years old to dream bigger, faster, and higher than ever before!
The diverse and inspiring group also includes Callan Chythlook-Sifsof, Adam Rippon, Kristy Yamaguchi, Lindsey Vonn, Marie-Philip Poulin, Shani Davis, Charles Flaherty, Maame Biney, and Nathan Chen.
