Who Was Eleanor Roosevelt?

106 pp. | Grosset | January, 2004 | Library ISBN 0-448-43510-1 $13.89 | Paper ISBN 0-448-43509-8 $$4.99
(3) 4-6 Who Was...? series. Illustrated by Elizabeth Wolf. This look at the first lady is a welcome alternative to the just-the-facts biographies that give no indication that their subject has an interior life. This book explores Roosevelt's character--as informed by her privileged upbringing, mother's inaccessibility, etc.--as much as it examines her public service. Throughout are expressive black-and-white illustrations. Timeline. Bib.
Reviewer: Nell Beram
