(3) K-3 Illustrated by Stacey Schuett. Silverman adroitly tells the story of the privileged nineteenth-century New Yorker who defied the thinking that "girls who used their brains too much would become ill" and shined as a social activist and poet; her "The New Colossus" graces the base of the Statue of Liberty. Schuett's multicolored swirls add verve to the staid historical backdrops. Reading list, websites. Bib.
Reviewer: Nell Beram
