Call Me Miss Hamilton: One Woman's Case for Equality and Respect by Carole Boston Weatherford
4.0
This was good. I did not know anything about Hamilton or her court case and this really broke the information down in a way that made sense for the picture book format while also being thorough and informative although I wish the text had more dates included.
I really hate the artwork. The juxtaposition between photographs and illustrations is chaotic. The scratch style (bio at back says scratch art on chalkboards) for the illustration are also not my favorite style. Intricate but I just don't like it personally. The design in general is a bit frenetic but it did add emphasis to key parts of the text which worked well.
Author's note, timeline, further reading, and captioned photos at the end
