From the copper canyons of Mexico, her swift footsteps echo. Clip clap, clip clap. In Belen Medina’s new picture book, Daughter of the Light-Footed People (Atheneum Books for Young Readers), experience a sixty-mile run with Indigenous athlete Lorena Ramírez. She runs in the traditional clothes of the Rarámuri, "the light-footed people," to show that her people and their way of life are alive and thriving — outpacing runners in modern, high-tech gear and capturing the world's attention. Lorena's career as an athlete is an inspiring real-life example of the power of perseverance that will encourage young readers to follow their own dreams.Preorder a Signed Edition: https://www.powells.com/book/daughter-of-the-light-footed-people-9781665931427/1-1
