Review:

Eleanor, named after the inspiring Eleanor Roosevelt, dreams of making the world a kinder, fairer place—just like her namesake. But she's still figuring out how to do it! She notices times when some classmates are left out or treated unfairly at school, and it makes her feel really sad. When their teacher excludes Star from a game, Eleanor decides to make a change by sitting right in the middle of the game. Her message? When everyone is in the middle, everyone belongs!

This heartwarming story is a friendly way to introduce young readers to the idea of standing up for what's right. It encourages kids to spot unfairness and take action. Plus, it shares fun facts about the amazing things Eleanor Roosevelt achieved. There are also helpful reading guides and tips on how to be an ally, making it a great resource for talking about kindness, fairness, and social justice with kids.
