Ezra E. Knopp

Eye-catching and colorful the book starts out by showing young folks that this man they've heard about in school was a real person who had a serious chronic illness when he was a child. Many myths/facts are briefly explored and explained (like how he dealt with race relations and got threatened for it). It even deals a bit with misinformation and altered photos. A hundred years ago! And, yes, he really was shot by a crazed man in my hometown and did finish his speech before going to hospital. There is also a timeline, glossary, index, and where to find more information.
This is one in a nonfiction series.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to a school or your local public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Rosen Publishing Group | PowerKids Press via NetGalley. Thank you!… (más)
