The Susan B. Anthony You Never Knew was an informative read written as if given in a lecture like format. James Lincoln Collier did a wonderful job making his reader feel like an active audience member who is clearly being shown exactly what life was like during the late 1800s/early 1900s for woman in the United States, and the role of the early suffragettes. I really enjoyed it, and unlike a lot of other non-fiction books for children this one was written in a way that I think will speak to students, not above them.
