Praise
“The book gives readers a kid’s-eye view of important happenings and reminds them that history is something that is in the making.” —Booklist
“This accessible, lively, and heartfelt chapter book reades like a memoir and makes a perfect introduction to an extraordinary time when regular people, even ten-year-old girls, make a difference.” —The Horn Book
“This easy chapter book, with simple sentences, plenty of white space, and a liberal sprinkling of Gordon’s expressive black-and-white drawings, is an appealing and welcome title.” —School Library Journal
