Clara Barton: Founder of the American Red Cross… por Barbara Somervill
Well designed and written. This book is an easy read, but still makes a very comprehensive view of the life of a busy, driven woman who was eager to make the world a better place. Good pictures and back matter.

Brown V. Board of Education (The Black American… por Barbara A Somervill
This nonfiction book about Brown V Board of Education is a must-have for school libraries. The photos and sidebars and extremely helpful in telling the story of the court case with feeling. The background helps to explain the importance of the court case. I think it's important for students to learn about this history while they are the same age as the integrated students. There is a timeline and a list of discussion questions at the end. The list of books for further reading is all generic nonfiction books about Brown v BOE. I would rather see some examples of biographies listed to give students a more personal look at the situation--Separate is Never Equal, Promise of Change, With the Might of Angels, Through My Eyes, Ruby Bridges Goes to School and This is Your Time are good examples.… (mais)
