She insisted on standing up--or in her case, sitting down--for what was right, and in doing so, fought for equality, fairness, and justice.In this chapter book biography by award-winning author Lesa Cline-Ransome, readers learn about the amazing life of Claudette Colvin--and how she persisted. Complete with an introduction from Chelsea Clinton!Praise for She Persisted: Claudette Colvin:"Cline-Ransome brings the teen activist to life with great compassion and impressive brevity . . .
