Teaching for Change: How Septima Clark Led the Civil Rights Movement to Voting Justice is an important and engaging picture book biography that should be included in school and public libraries. The author beautifully balances quality information with keeping it accessible. Readers will learn a lot about Septima Clark and the Civil Rights Movement but in a digestible way. This would be a great text for a biography unit, a unit on the Civil Rights Movement, or a history class. This would be a best fit for readers in second through fifth grade, with a place in secondary classrooms studying these topics looking for a more accessible text or a starting place to study elements of biography texts or learning about this time period. This was a five-star read for me. Reviewed by Katy Jones, Gardiner Area High School Library, Gardiner
