The Voice that Won the Vote by Elisa Boxer illustrated by Vivian Mildenberger*

 A few weeks ago in history we learned how a TN representative broke the tie and brought women's right to vote into law by listening to his mother! This picture book expounds on the culture at the time, the law making process, his mother, and the ramifications of his vote.

Point to discuss: In the author's note her language denotes a secular worldview-"by trusting their truth", "find similar courage to express what's in your heart and trust your inner voice . . ."

*Highly recommend but see above point to discuss.

-Borrowed from the library.
