I do not think it is appropriate for young students, but it might fit for students wanting to get involved in politics. I enjoyed her biography of where and how she grew up, but it was long and outdrawn; most kids would become bored. Before I read this book, I knew some things politically about Elizabeth Warren, but this book helped me to understand why she fights for what she does and where her passion comes from. ( ) This was a great biography about Elizabeth Warren. I read this book to my students because we are learning about government in Social Studies. I never knew Elizabeth's story while growing up. It was very touching to hear what her family and herself went through tough times but did not let anything stop her from succeeding. My students really enjoyed this book a lot. Some of them said they want to be a lawyer or a senator when they grow up so they can change the world. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
"This picture book biography will outline the incredible history of Elizabeth Warren, the first female senator from Massachusetts. Elizabeth came from a struggling middle-class family in Oklahoma City. After a heart attack put Elizabeth's father out of work, Elizabeth helped out by babysitting, waitressing, and sewing dresses, all while skipping a grade and shining in her school's debate team. Debate taught Elizabeth how to fight with her words, a skill that eventually won her a state championship and a college scholarship. As a lawyer and law professor, Elizabeth learned why it was so difficult for working-class families like her own to advance economically, and today she continues to fight (with her words) for the poor and middle-class in her role as a politician. The text focuses on the importance of being outspoken--of fighting with words both for yourself and for those that need your help. The backmatter will include an author's note and resources list. Nevertheless, She Persisted is sure to appeal to members of the "resist-erhood" looking for stories of strong female leaders"-- Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
