"Freedman has created a sensitive biography of Eleanor Roosevelt --
certainly sympathetic but not overly adulatory; it captures her
spirit. The beautifully crafted text flows smoothly and is
accompanied by over one hundred black-and-white photographs
portraying Roosevelt at every age. Young readers will find
inspiration, hope, and guidance in the life of the outstanding
woman. Bib., ind." -- Copyright (c) 1994 The Horn Book, Inc. All
