The Corinthian girl : champion athlete of ancient Olympia / Christina Balit.
"Set in Ancient Greece, this inspiring story tells of an enslaved girl who became champion in the Heraean Games (the girls' and women's version of the Olympic Games) in the great stadium at Olympia. Born in Corinth, abandoned as a baby, she becomes nameless until her strength and skill are noticed by her owner, a famous athlete. Her spirit and courage take her to victory in the Games, to freedom and to fame."-- Provided by publisher.
