Lillian Wald

Autor Paul Kaplan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – vârsta de la 8 până la 12 ani

She was the forgotten greatest social reformer of her time.

In this immensely significant biography, Paul Kaplan follows powerful activist Lillian Wald, a social and education reformer dedicated to helping less fortunate citizens in New York. While living there, Wald began campaigning for healthcare, which lead her to inserting herself into the social climate of her patients. Groundbreaking for her time, Lillian Wald was not only a revolutionary reformer but also an advocate for women's suffrage, racial integration, and worker's rights. She acted as a leader in a world that has now forgotten her countless contributions. This biography is brilliant for children looking for a strong female role model from the past, for today.

"Kaplan has meticulously researched Wald's life and achievements and sets them carefully in context, with many references to contemporary events and people."
--Kirkus Reviews STARRED REVIEW

A revolutionary social reformer and public servant, Lillian Wald fought for public services and welfare reforms that would alleviate the plight of the nation's working poor. Among her many accomplishments are bringing lunches into public schools and the creation of recreational parks for inner-city children.

Author Paul Kaplan brings to life this dynamic woman who was at the forefront of social reforms and one of the most influential people of her time. Lillian Wald serves as an inspiration to us all to continue to do the hard work that needs to be done.
