We are mighty : 12 ordinary Americans who did the next needed thing / written by Sharon McMahon ; illustrated by Susanna Chapman.
"One kind act. One spark of bravery. One big idea from someone nobody expected. In this beautifully illustrated collection, you'll meet twelve real people from America's past--some famous, most not--whose choices changed the course of history. You'll meet MarÃa de López, who drove ambulances during World War I and helped win the vote for women. You'll read about two boys--Norman and Alan--who met at a campout, stayed friends for life, and helped lead the country together. And you'll discover how teachers, kids, and quiet changemakers made a mighty difference in their communities. With powerful storytelling from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sharon McMahon and vivid art from award-winning illustrator Susanna Chapman, We Are Mighty celebrates courage, character, and the idea that the smallest step can create ripples we can't yet see."-- Provided by publisher.
