You Want Women to Vote, Lizzie Stanton?

Fasten your seatbelts, if you expect to keep up with the whirlwind that was Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Jean Fritz, where were you when I decided, like most kids, that history is boring? (You were probably in Grade School at the time.) This is one of a series of biographies that are great for discussion--short, fast-paced and interesting. If you read this one along with your children, you can talk about commitment, handling opposition, and the role of women. Unusual for a short work, the book includes brief notes, a bibliography and index. Quality = 5; Acceptability = 5. Leave me a comment if you have read other Fritz books that are not to be missed.
