Naging tampok bilang cover sa isang children’s book si Rio Olympics silver medalist Hidilyn Diaz. Ipinost niya ang tungkol dito sa kanyang Facebook page ang librong may pamagat na ‘Ginto’t Pilak’.
Ang sustansiya ng illustrated biography (ni Hidilyn) ay ipalaganap ang awareness sa sport.Lalo na sa weightlifting kung saan, nakapagbigay siya ng karangalan sa bansa.
Si Hidilyn mismo ang nagsulat ng libro, katuwang si Eugene Evasco. Iginuhit naman ni Tristan Yuvienco ang kuwento batay sa panayam ni Noel Ferrer kay Diaz.
“This is one of my WHY’s in life, before I won the silver medal for the Philippines at the 2016 Rio Olympics.”
“I didn’t give up on my preparation for Olympics because of the younger generation,” saad ng 29-anyos na si Diaz.
“I wanted to build a weightlifitng gym for them, I built it, but what I want is to give them the inspiration to continue with their dream in weightlifting,” aniya.
