Review

This book was a biography about an influential person in history named Frederick Douglass. Douglass’ story is amazing and the book explains why he was called the lion. The book also talks about the importance of education and reading. The intended audience is around the ages 4-8. A teacher could use this story to explain who Douglass was and introduce the topic of slavery. The book is well-written and should be in every library collection. Highly Recommend.
