Gr. 2-4. First published in 1991, these picture-book biographies in the Great African Americans series have been revised to include more historical photos, a new design, and up-to-date bibliographies with several Web sites. The writing style in the Douglass book is sometimes stilted, but the basic facts about his life under slavery, his escape, and his work as a leading abolitionist are here. The chatty style works well in the McKissacks' book about Terrell, one of the first black women to earn a college degree, and the authors do a good job of integrating Terrell's personal life with the conditions of the time and her active role in the fight for civil rights. Both books will be useful as first biographies for young readers and for reading aloud. Hazel Rochman
