Illustrated by
Kevin Belford.
This picture book biography focuses largely on the difficulties Ashe overcame along the way to achieving his stellar tennis goals. Born in an era of segregated sports facilities, lacking financial support, and often restricted from playing in tournaments, Ashe persevered; the text culminates in his 1975 defeat of Jimmy Connors. Belford's motion-filled acrylic illustrations enhance Hubbard's readable text. Timeline. Bib.
