Blogging women's history books

by Katie Bircher
Mar 01, 2011 | Filed in Articles & Opinion
>A full month of blog posts commemorating women's history begins today on KidLit Celebrates Women's History Month. Creators and critics of children's literature (including Anita Silvey, Candace Fleming, Kathleen Krull, and Tanya Bolden) will highlight excellent books about women's history. The blog is off to a great start with a review of Laurie Halse Anderson's Thank You, Sarah: The Woman Who Saved Thanksgiving, a picture book biography of Sarah Hale.
