From the Publisher
Franklin Delano Roosevelt grew up with private tutors, trips to Europe, and great wealth. But his life changed suddenly when he came down with polio. With determination and courage to overcome this obstacle, he decided to run for President. That decision helped change the course of America—both at home and overseas.
TIME For Kids? Biographies help make a connection between the lives of past heroes and the events of today. Franklin Roosevelt set up important programs that are still in place. And through his leadership, he helped establish the United States as a world power.
Children's Literature
This biography of FDR, from birth to death with substantial detail of the years of The Great Depression and WWII, combines facts and generalizations. For example, FDR played High Kick at Groton, wrote for and edited The Harvard Crimson, created the Civilian Conservation Corp, raised taxes on the wealthy during WWII, passed Social Security and the New Deal, and others. Generalizations make me want to know the source--"He was happy to win some respect at school." "Luckily Franklin knew just the right thing to say to be forgiven every time . . . [When] he became President, he would use that charm to help win support from those who disagreed with him." "He was treated for polio, although some doctors today think he may have had a different illness." The book includes occasional quotes in chapters and side panels. The interview with Doris Kearns Goodwin addresses questions about FDR's role as President, his greatest achievements, and reasons for his concern for the poor. Great photographs are included--a ration card, a campaign button, FDR with the Groton baseball team, family photos, FDR in a wheelchair, a political cartoon, FDR with Churchill and Stalin, and others. The biography lacks a bibliography and an index but includes photography and illustration credits. The is part of the "TIME for Kids" biographies series. 2006, HarperCollins Publishers |
