(4) K-3 Ready-to-Read: Stories of Famous Americans series. Illustrated by Julia Denos. This story of the freed slave who became a preacher and a fighter for women's rights is told cleanly and clearly in this book for more sophisticated beginning readers. Merchant provides some historical context and the motivations behind Truth's actions. Many of the illustrations are atmospheric and powerful (though a few look unfinished). Timeline.
