Bucking the norms of both her traditional Jewish family and societal conventions, Clara refuses to accept substandard working conditions in the factories on Manhattans Lower East Side. For years, Clara devotes herself to the labor fight, speaking up for those who suffer in silence. In time, Clara convinces the women in the factories to strike, organize, and unionize, culminating in the famous Uprising of the 20,000.Powerful, breathtaking, and inspiring, Audacity is the story of a remarkable young woman, whose passion and selfless devotion to her cause changed the world.Praise for AUDACITY:A 2015 National Jewish Book Award finalist A Washington Post Best Childrens Books for April: Poetry Edition An ILA Notable Book for a Global Society A 2016 NCTE Childrens Notable Verse Novel A New York Public Library Best Book for Teens An ALA Top 10 Best Fiction for Young Adults Pick An ALSC Notable Childrens Book nominee A BCCB Blue Ribbon winner Crowder breathes life into a world long past....Compelling, powerful and unforgettable. --Kirkus Reviews, starred review This book stands alone....an impactful addition to any historical fiction collection.--School Library Journal, starred review With a thorough historical note, glossary of terms, and bibliography, this will make an excellent complement to units on womens rights and the labor movement, but it will also satisfy readers in search of a well-told tale of a fierce heroine.--BCCB, starred review This is an excellent title that can open discussions in U.S. history and economics courses about womens rights, labor unions, and the immigrant experience.--School Library Connection, starred reviewBased on the true story of Clara Lemlich, Audacity throbs with the emotions of this exceptional young woman who fought for equal rights and improved labor standards in factories.
