Dalilah Muhammad: Colors of Success - Paperback

by Erica Milagros (Author)

The "Colors of Success" series features short biographies on extraordinary women of color for middle-grade readers. In this volume, written by Erica Milagros, read about Olympic champion Dalilah Muhammad. From her roots in Jamaica, Queens, New York to the 400-meter hurdles gold medal in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, breaking the world record that stood for 16 years, and becoming a spokesperson for equality, here is the inspiring story of one of the USA's greatest and most graceful track and field athletes of all time. This Dalilah Muhammad book is the first volume in what we hope will become a set of middle-grade readers about inspiring women of color from across a broad range of fields and a wide diversity of backgrounds.
