Description
Fencing events at the Summer Games are amazing to watch! Quicker than a race car, fencers lunge and parry their way to victory in this combat sport. Elementary Spanish readers will discover the speed and precision it takes to win gold in foil, saber, and épée events. Action photos and North American Spanish translated text introduce fencing's Olympic history, equipment, and individual or team modes of play. A biographical story spotlights Romain Cannone, a French fencer who fulfilled his Olympic dreams by winning gold at the 2020 Tokyo Games.
Photo captions and on-page definitions support reading comprehension. Includes extra resources and an index.
