This book makes me cry every time I read it to my son, I can't help it. I love stories of union organizing because the strength and courage it takes people to give up their livelihood and put themselves at risk for abuse for the benefit of justice gives me hope for the future. With vibrant illustrations and a wonderful story, why wouldn't I be proud to teas of Clara's bravery. ( ) This book would be good for intermediate level aged students.
