""A stirring expression of the triumph of the human spirit."" -- Kirkus Reviews Agnes's sto­ry is one of per­se­ver­ance, deter­mi­na­tion, and strength. Her life is an inspi­ra­tion, prov­ing that it is pos­si­ble to over­come tri­als and extreme hard­ships even in the most dif­fi­cult of times. This book will appeal to chil­dren who are inter­est­ed in Jew­ish his­to­ry or who need a reminder that their own goals are worth pur­su­ing, no mat­ter what. ""An inspiring and fascinating biography for readers interested in sports, history, or simply a good story of resilience."" -- starred, Booklist
