Woodgate, Harry

A validation of self through historical heroes to engage readers in the classroom and at home. This book allows young readers to see that real-life heroes find the ability to make a difference by speaking their minds and letting their truths be known.

Though it does not quite live up to the promise of its predecessor, this book will prove meaningful to children and families with connections to the history and continuing tradition of Pride.

For the hope for new adventures, and the glimpse of intergenerational kindness and understanding, this lovely book should be on every shelf.
