(3) YA In this compelling piece of historical fiction, young Margaret Sanger watches her consumptive mother in near constant childbirth while helping to raise her many siblings. Margaret is painted as a feisty, free-spirited young woman frustrated by her limited options in the late 1880s. The novel doesn't cover her adult feminist activism or founding of Planned Parenthood, but a historical note explains more. Bib.
