This book tells the tale of Sarah Hale, Civil War Superhero, the woman who saved Thanksgiving. Sarah's crusade took 38 years and lasted through 4 presidencies. She used the tool/weapon of her pen with her persistence. Finally, Abraham Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a national holiday.
The author's notes provide more information on Sarah and encourage students to use Sarah as an example and use their pens to exact change. Indeed, although students cannot vote - they have the power for their voices to be heard through words.
