Abstract:
"Arabella is excited when she's invited to compete in international track and field races. She is also nervous. Living with sickle cell disease means Arabella needs to take extra steps to keep herself feeling good and avoid the pain that sometimes keeps her from training and racing. When traveling involves challenging temperatures and conditions, how can she race her best and come out on top? Find out how Arabella uses healthy strategies--and a powerful new trick--to balance training, racing and her hobbies while she discovers life beyond sickle cell disease."--Page [4] of cover.
