Part of the DK Life Stories series of children's biographies, this is an accessible way for young readers to learn about Tubman, as well as an option for those not looking to start with a long or dense biography. The author makes use of simple illustrations, photographs, and art to enhance the text, and includes a glossary, timeline, family tree, list of important people, and index. As a recent publication, it also avoids the pitfalls of other books for young readers about Tubman, and includes the most current facts and knowledge we have about her.
