Non fiction book review - A Take-Charge Girl Blazes a Trail to Congress

 

A Take-Charge Girl Blazes a Trail to Congress by Gretchen Woelfle

I'm willing to bet most of us have not heard the name Jeannette Rankin. She's not a figure often mentioned in our history classes which is a real shame. Not only is she an important figure in the suffrage movement, she's a great example of making real change in the world. When she saw a problem, an injustice, she didn't bemoan it. She set about changing it. This is a simple, easy to follow narrative with messaging that will be easily understood by younger children but won't talk down to older kids. 

More information: This book releases February 7.
