Author: Barbara Cooney

Description

In Eleanor, two-time Caldecott Medal winner Barbara Cooney paints a meticulously researched, lushly detailed picture of Eleanor’s childhood world–but most importantly, she captures the essence of the little girl whose indomitable spirit would make her one of the greatest and most beloved first ladies of all time.

“There are many biographies of Eleanor Roosevelt, but this one is special. Cooney is at her artistic best.” —Booklist
