Critics Review

”… sidebars that invite readers to respond personally to significant incidents or character traits will help hold readers’ interest … to spark further engagement, a quiz and a set of discussion questions follow the pithy closing analysis of Sojourner’s legacy.” – Kirkus Reviews“A brilliant chapter book biography of a worthy historical figure. It reveals so much of U.S. History and Sojourner Truth’s life story. This book is a must for homes, and for community and elementary libraries everywhere.” – Dr. Kimberly A. Gordon Biddle, Educator and Author, Emeritus Professor of Child and Adolescent Development“Anita Crawford Clark demonstrates a remarkable blend of poignancy and eloquence. Notably, the text features a series of thought-provoking discussion questions, strategically designed to facilitate active engagement among children, parents, and educators. This participatory approach not only enhances reading comprehension but also bolsters the confidence of young readers. These elements collectively contribute to a valuable educational resource for young learners that I highly recommend.” – Susan Arriaga, Private School Principal and Curriculum Specialist“Anita Crawford Clark is one of those shepherds of wisdom who uses her inviting writing style to provide educators with beautifully organized resources that illuminate stories of African American history. Definitely something parents/guardians, educators, and young readers can hold together as a shared learning experience!” – Tunisha Singleton, Ph.D., Media and Communications Strategy/Innovation & Cultural Insights
