Book Reviews of Dear Mr. Rosenwald

Book Review: A fine tale of a generous man's lasting impact on the Afro- American community.
Summary: 5 Stars

Carole Boston Weatherford's DEAR MR. ROSENWALD receives award-winning artist R. Gregory Christie's fun illustrations as it tells of a one-room school and a Sears president who is donating money to redo it. But how can a poor community match funds with a rich man to make their dream come true? It's based on the true story of the Rosenwald schools of the 1920s and 30s and offers a fine tale of a generous man's lasting impact on the Afro- American community.
