Overview
Sam Sánchez puede que no tenga entrenador ni el equipo adecuado, pero está decidida a convertirse en la primera medallista de oro de halterofilia de Chile. Está completamente segura.
Cuando surge la oportunidad de entrenar en un centro de alto rendimiento junto a su ídolo, la campeona olímpica Eva Dos Santos… Sam no puede dejarla pasar, aunque eso signifique hacerlo a espaldas de sus padres.
Mientras hace nuevos amigos (y también una rival) durante su entrenamiento e intenta clasificarse para los Juegos Panamericanos, descubrirá hasta dónde pueden llevarla el esfuerzo y la perseverancia… y cuánto peso es capaz de soportar.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A debut graphic novel about one girl’s weightlifting dreams and how far she’ll go for them, from a popular Chilean animator.
Sam Sanchez might not have a coach or proper equipment, but she’s going to become Chile’s first weightlifting gold medalist. She just knows it.
When there’s an opportunity to train at the high-performance center with her weightlifting hero and Olympic gold medalist Eva Dos Santos . . . well, Sam can’t let that opportunity pass. Even if it means going behind her parents’ back.
As she makes friends (and a rival) during training and tries to qualify for the Pan American Games, she’ll find out how far hard work and perseverance can take her and just how much weight she’s able to hold.
