(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sofia Moore. Like her friends Jane Addams and Susan B. Anthony, Solomon didn't let the rigid social mores for women in the early 1900s keep her from advocating for immigrants, the poor, and women. This accessible picture-book biography introduces a lesser-known social reformer who founded the National Council of Jewish Women, which "worked to help people around the country." Moore's stylish illustrations evoke the era and reflect Solomon's energy and purpose. End notes offer more about "Chicago's most important Jewish leader of her generation" and Addams's Hull House. A timeline is appended.
