""Kids always search for heroes, so we might as well have a say in it,"" Brad Meltzer realized, and so he envisioned this friendly, fun approach to biography. Each book tells the story of one of America’s icons in an entertaining, conversational way that works well for the youngest nonfiction readers, those who aren’t quite ready for the Who Was series. Each book focuses on a particular character trait that made that role model heroic. For example, Rosa Parks dared to stand up for herself and other African Americans by staying seated, and as a result she helped end public bus segregation and launch the country’s civil rights movement.

I have read this book

I like that she stood up for herself and that she is an inspiration to me and other children.

This book is phenomenal! It's a great book to give to little kids to learn about a historical and amazing woman. The words make it so simple, yet so detailed. I love the cartoon-style to this book, it makes the topic so fun and interesting to learn about.
