Learning about Assertiveness from the Life of Oprah Winfrey Book

I went--where else?--to the library to find a picture book display focusing on hope, and since it was a particularly bad political news week, I eagerly picked up this book which I realize was also very positively reviewed here by Manybooks, so was on my list. A truly inspiring picture book by Kathleen Krull and gorgeously illustrated with sweeping color and magical realism by Yuyi Morales, this is a biography for older kids, maybe, of one of the twentieth-century's great leaders for social and economic justice, who led a peace march for more than 240 miles through California to sign the first contract for farmworkers in American history. Highly recommended. I'm going to get off the couch now and make some calls to make sure people vote in this 2020 Presidential election.
