48 pp. | Simon/Aladdin | July, 2006 | Library ISBN 0-689-87033-7 $11.89 | Paper ISBN 0-689-87032-9 $3.99
(4) K-3 Ready-to-Read: Stories of Famous Americans series. Illustrated by Bob Dacey & Debra Bandelin. Abigail Adams's strong will and devotion to family, in addition to her independent intellectual life, come through in this simple, easy-to-read biography. Some of the ideas presented are quite sophisticated for early readers; quotes from Adams are woven into the story. The colorful watercolor-washed pages and pictures adequately illustrate the scenes but are somewhat bland and static. Timeline.
Reviewer: Paula M. Cairo
