| Summary |
"Born into a life of wealth and opportunity, Eleanor Roosevelt chose to devote herself to those who were less fortunate. Human rights, poverty, world peace - no problem was too large for her to tackle. Through archival footage and stills, kids will examine the life of this passionate activist who grew from a shy, self-conscious girl into a strong, outspoken woman who was admired by people all over the world. From her years of redefining the role of First Lady during the Great Depression and World War II to her role as a leader in creating the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, discover why this great American was often referred to as 'Eleanor Everywhere, ' and see how her words and actions helped make the world a better place"--Container. |
