From Booklist

Gr. 3^-6. Another fine entry in the Creative Minds series, this biography highlights the life and times of suffragist Elizabeth Cady Stanton and her groundbreaking role in organizing the first woman's rights convention in 1848. Stanton's girlhood, education, and, most important, awareness of the inequities women suffered are clearly described. Equally important and fascinating are Stanton's associations with other vital activists of her day, such as Frederick Douglass, Lucretia Mott, and Susan B. Anthony. This insightful work does much to help readers understand the humble beginnings of the woman's rights movement. Denia Hester -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Bibliothekseinband .

From School Library Journal

Grade 3-5. Stanton was a leader in the early women's rights movement, working in the 1800s with famous suffragettes such as Susan B. Anthony and Lucretia Mott. She resolved early in life to get a good education and to prove that she was equal to any boy. Her husband's work in the abolitionist movement showed her that even people who believed that slaves should be free and have rights did not necessarily believe the same was true for women. This biography uses Stanton's letters, diaries, and reminiscences as background but relates the information in story form, resulting in a book that is enjoyable as well as informative. Black-and-white charcoal-and-pencil drawings provide a sense of the period. Swain covers only Stanton's early years and the events leading up to the Seneca Falls convention, but an afterword describes later events in her life. Jean Fritz's You Want Women to Vote, Lizzie Stanton? (Putnam, 1995) is more complete and aimed at a slightly older audience. However, The Road to Seneca Falls is a good introduction for younger readers.?Lucinda Snyder Whitehurst, St. Christopher's School, Richmond, VA

WAKE UP TO WHAT WE OWE THE SUFFRAGISTS ! 7. November 2002
Von mcHaiku - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Bibliothekseinband
"The Road to Seneca Falls" will take contemporary readers back to the time of their great, Great, GREAT-grandparents. Can today's 4th and 5th graders identify with what may seem ancient history? Will Elizabeth Cady Stanton and her sausage curls draw young readers?

Let's hope Gwenyth Swain's story ignites interest & even passion
in 'Women's Rights' and the tough fight to change conditions which today's girls can hardly believe ever existed: NO college for women! NO rights to personal or real property! and definitely NO VOTE!

Elizabeth was never a shy violet. She was bright and determined. The story of her childhood makes her seem genuinely real. Her beliefs were authentic and she never turned her back on them, or those who stood with her, persistent and dedicated.

As a fan of the author, I was delighted to see her picture on the back cover of the library edition. She is shown at the truly meaningful national historical monment to women's rights, an exciting museum complex in Seneca Falls -- in upstate New York.
This is a town which many people identify as the backdrop for the movie classic "It's a Wonderful Life". The museum draws people from all over the USA and world and gives one the opportunity to pay tribute to women who did battle for a worthy cause. I could bridge many decades and pose next to a hero, Frederick Douglass!

I recommend this 5-star book for its well-researched story, and useful bibliography. It will help growing readers as they learn to choose values for their own lives.
