Many children dream of competing in the Olympics. Few do. Even fewer win the gold medal. Does it matter? In a world where winning and endorsement deals take centre stage, has the power of sport and the Olympic dream itself been lost?
After just missing a bronze in the Olympics, Canadian runner Leah Pells was ecstatic. For her, the Olympic dream symbolized more than a medal but a triumph over tumultuous upbringing in the single-parent home of an alcoholic.
From Olympic highs to personal lows, Leah bravely talks about a wide-spread disease while delivering a message of hope. By turning hardship into inspiration, Leah shows readers how to lead a life of Olympic proportions no matter what their beginnings.
