emotional informative inspiring medium-paced

4.5

Brilliantly told historical fiction story written in free verse. Melanie Crowder takes the real-life pieces of Clara Lemlich and sews them into an emotional, tough, and inspiring narrative of how the voice and ideas of one individual can spark the flames of an entire community. Crowder also provides some historical background on Clara and her family, including exclusive interviews with her family members. I am excited to have this book in my toolbelt and can't wait to use it in the future.
