Perfect Match: The Story of Althea Gibson and Angela Buxton by Amanda Quartey, Lori Dubbin

informative inspiring medium-paced

I love a biography about someone I didn’t know about. In this case it’s two women. The first Althea was the first black woman to win Wimbledon, and the second also faced her own hurdles as a Jewish tennis player. These women took on Wimbledon and one. It led to a lifelong friendship and a story perfect for any kid that likes sports.
