He didn't account for African-American sprinter and long jumper James Cleveland \"Jesse\" Owens, who smashed records throughout his track and field career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Owens turned Hitler's Olympic vision on its head by winning four gold medals in the 100m, 200m, 4x100m relay and long jump. Along the way, he broke or equaled nine Olympic records and set three world records. In graphic nonfiction style, this biography takes readers from Owens's early life to his historic athletic triumphs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Blake Hoena\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1728402956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781728402956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Graphic Universe (Tm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 6.50w x 0.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e509839 \/ Jesse Owens\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blake Hoena","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048870932735,"sku":"9781728402956","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a5737b68-2f22-4f80-87c6-54d709071128.jpg?v=1684998303","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jesse-owens-blake-hoena-9781728402956","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
