A Kid's Review
This review is from: Clara Barton: Founder of the American Red Cross (Childhood of Famous Americans) (Paperback)
I really liked this book because I really like to learn about different people. To know who Clara Barton is and what she did is very exciting. People who like reading about famous people and what they did would really like this book.
