* “A bright salutation of a story, with one made up our minds woman at its center.”–Kirkus Reviews, starred review

The inspiring story of the first female to run the Boston Marathon comes to life in stunningly vivid collage illustrations.
     Because Bobbi Gibb is a girl, she’s not allowed to run on her school’s track team. But after school, no person can stop her–and she’s free to run endless miles to her heart’s content. She is told no over again when she tries to go into the Boston Marathon in 1966, for the reason that officials claim that it is a man’s race and that women are just not able to running this sort of long distance. So what does Bobbi do? She bravely sets out to end up the naysayers improper and show the world just what a girl can do.
