Franklin & Eleanor

(4) 4-6 Uncondescendingly, Harness begins with the Roosevelts' privileged early lives, then emphasizes their groundbreaking efforts for social justice and wartime leadership amid complex personal lives, including Eleanor's unhappy childhood and domineering mother-in-law and Franklin's polio, but excluding some other difficulties. Though Harness's color illustrations are effective, the sepia-toned ones convey even more emotion. Timeline. Bib.
Reviewer: Frieda F. Bostian
