Elizabeth Warren by Susan Wood Pdf

This picture-book biography of U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren is “a strong, upbeat introduction to a bold figure,” a feminist icon known for perseverance. Elizabeth Warren: Nevertheless, She Persisted shares the incredible story of the first female senator of Massachusetts. Elizabeth came from a struggling middle-class family in Oklahoma City. After a heart attack put Elizabeth's father out of work, she helped out by babysitting, waitressing, and sewing, all while shining as a star member of her school's debate team. Debate taught Elizabeth how to fight with her words, a skill that eventually won her a state championship and a college scholarship. As a lawyer and law professor, Elizabeth learned why it was so difficult for working-class families like her own to advance economically, and today she continues to fight (with her words) for the poor and middle-class in her role as a senator. Elizabeth Warren emphasizes the importance of being outspoken--of using your words to fight for both yourself and for those who need your help. "A fond tribute to a politician whose story is very much still being written." ?Publishers Weekly "The story-like text flows, keeping readers engaged. This is a good choice for both reports and inspirational reading aloud." ?Booklist "Useful and accessible addition to the growing group of biographies about women politicians." ?School Library Journal
