I'm not sure this is an "everybody" book. Look how sick the man looks (the one with the ribbon). This story could generate a great conversation about history and what we know now. The book features a specific Olympic event and not the history of the marathon. It never mentions that women could not participate until 1984. It's a weird story, but I liked it. #everybodybooks
