Splash! Ethelda Bleibtrey Makes Waves of Change<\/em>
\nby Elisa Boxer (Author) and Elizabeth Baddeley (Illustrator)

Booktalk:<\/strong> Ethelda Bleibtrey was a girl with guts who loved the water. As a child with polio in the early 1900s, swimming set her free. The water released her from her pain and helped her build strong muscle–and a powerful spirit. From then on, from the New York beaches to the choppy waters of the 1920 Olympics to the Central Park Reservoir, Ethelda made a splash wherever she went. For Ethelda, doing the right thing sometimes came with a price–change often does–but Ethelda helped make the world better than how she found it. Splash!<\/p>\n
