(4) 4-6 History Maker Bios series. Simple, pedantic text introduces readers to the heroic young activist who broke racial and educational barriers. The volume traces Bridges's life to adulthood, noting that she continues to work for educational equality in the still-hurricane-ravaged city of New Orleans. Effective archival photographs and less useful chapter-opener illustrations are included. Reading list, timeline, websites. Bib., ind.
Reviewer: Henrietta M. Smith
