"This attractive, accessible title uses the Lincoln Memorial as a vehicle ot outline the history of the Civil Rights Movement from the Emancipation Proclamation to Dr. King's "I Have a Dream" speech to the 2008 presidential election. Slade explains in clear, descriptive prose ... Bootman's realistic watercolor spreads are striking ..."--School Library Journal
“My love of writing began with reading. Growing up, reading was one of my favorite activities. Every year I joined my library’s summer reading club and read stacks of books - chapter books, picture books, non-fiction books . . . all kinds of books! I loved discovering exciting new places and people through reading. I still spend hours at my library reading children’s books. I'm fascinated by the colorful photos and facts in non-fiction books. I enjoy the beautiful illustrations and carefully woven stories of picture books. I love to read and I love to write!” -Susan
One thing I found out is that she lives north of Chicago just like us! She also has a dog called Couduroy and the dog is a Yorkshire Terrier
