Portraits of Jewish-American Heroes

96 pp. | Dutton | August, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-525-47771-6 $22.99
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Elizabeth Rosen. Short biographies of twenty-one figures, from Revolutionary War patriot Haym Salomon to feminist Gloria Steinem and journalist Daniel Pearl, encapsulate the subjects' contributions as Jews and as Americans. Varied mixed-media illustrations, each of which uses materials that are thematically linked to the person's accomplishments (e.g., the Levi Strauss picture's background is denim) complete the attractive package. Reading list, timeline. Bib., glos.
Reviewer: Amy Kellman
