Like That Eleanor

The Amazing Power of Being an Ally

With Eleanor Roosevelt as its guide, this warm picture book provides a primer on allyship. Eleanor wants to be more like her namesake, but situations often feel too big for her to change. When her teacher splits the class into girls and boys, singling out a nonbinary student, Eleanor makes a stand, taking a seat in the middle. After all, “if all of us are in the middle, then all of us belong.” Reading guides and an ally how-to round out this educational title.
