This is how history should be told to kids-with photos, illustrations, and captivating storytelling. From Newbery Honor medalist Susan Campbell Bartoletti and in time to celebrate the 100th anniversary of woman suffrage in America comes the page-turning, stunningly illustrated, and tirelessly researched story of the little-known DC Women' s March of 1913. Bartoletti spins a story like few others-deftly taking readers by the hand and introducing them to suffragettes Alice Paul and Lucy Burns. Paul and Burns met in a London jail and fought their way through hunger strikes, jail time, and much more to win a long, difficult victory for America and its women. Includes extensive back matter and dozens of archival images to evoke the time period between 1909 and 1920.
Sidebars, captions, and the inclusion of photos and newspaper clippings add informative visual interest along with Chen' s clear, unaffected illustrations. Text and pictures convey the conflict and struggle without sensationalism. The inclusion of a photograph of the January 2017 Women' s March acknowledges that there is more work to be done. A well-documented, highly condensed introduction with substantial visual appeal. --Kirkus Reviews
