Haym Salomon: American Patriot

(4) K-3 Illustrated by David Slonim. Jewish immigrant Haym Salomon, known as the "Financier of the American Revolution," sacrificed his health, safety, and personal fortune to support his country. Rubin relies on a lot of fictionalized dialogue to fill in what little is known about Salomon's life, which she acknowledges in her appended author's note. Slonim's cartoon-style oil paintings add levity to the warm, lengthy narrative. Bib., glos.
