(4) K-3 Illustrated by Lisa Fields. This biography of the great Hopi distance runner romanticizes his background, but it provides a clear and simply written account of his accomplishments--including a silver medal in the 1912 Olympics, setting a U.S. record that was not broken until 1964. Swirling pictographs in the otherwise realistic and well-composed illustrations are distracting. Timeline. Bib.
