Description
What can you do when you see unfair things happening to other people? Eleanor's not sure, but she wants to make things more fair, like her namesake Eleanor Roosevelt. Robin's excluded from a boys-only soccer game. Bryce is left out of a girls-only conversation. And nonbinary Star can't even use the same bathrooms as everyone else. Eleanor collects friends but doesn't know how to help. But when their teacher leaves Star out of a classroom game, Eleanor stands up for her friend by sitting down in just the right spot... And that changes everything. Like THAT Eleanor. From award-winning author Lee Wind, whose social justice-inspired picture book Red and Green and Blue and White (illustrated by Paul O. Zelinsky) was called " beautiful" by The New York Times, in a review that praised it as, " a message the world can use, throughout the year.

Researching Eleanor Roosevelt for his nonfiction No Way, They Were Gay? inspired Lee so much that it sparked the idea for this picture book. Lee is also authored picture books Love of the Half-Eaten Peach and Red and Green and Blue and White. He runs the popular blog I'm Here. I'm Queer. What the Hell Do I Read? - words his younger self only dreamed of saying. Lee lives in LA with husband of more than 25 yrs and their daughter.
