<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Ideal for kids who are beyond easy-to-read books, but not quite ready for a really long biography, the Who Was series introduces readers to the woman who changed the role of the nation's First Lady forever. Illustrations.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>For a long time, the main role of First Ladies was to act as hostesses of the White House...until Eleanor Roosevelt. Born in 1884, Eleanor was not satisfied to just be a glorified hostess for her husband, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Eleanor had a voice, and she used it to speak up against poverty and racism. She had experience and knowledge of many issues, and fought for laws to help the less fortunate. She had passion, energy, and a way of speaking that made people listen, and she used these gifts to campaign for her husband and get him elected president-four times! A fascinating historical figure in her own right, Eleanor Roosevelt changed the role of First Lady forever.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>A former educator, Gare Thompson has written bestselling classroom programs as well as numerous children's books. His specialty is historical fiction. Thompson lives in Massachusetts.
