(3) K-3 Illustrated by Joy Fisher Hein. Appelt covers major events in the life of Lady Bird Johnson, wife of Lyndon B. Johnson, focusing on the First Lady's lifelong love of wildflowers and her determination to beautify America with the passage of the Highway Beautification Act. Hein is more skillful at depicting landscapes than human figures, but overall the book is attractive and well written. Afterword, endnotes. Bib.
