Hillary Rodham Clinton: First Lady - Softcover

Gr. 3-5. Another entry in the Gateway Biography series, this title contains some of the same information included in Cwiklik's Bill Clinton but avoids duplication of photographs. LeVert provides an easy-to-read overview covering the First Lady's life until her appointment to head the National Health Care Task Force. The tone of the biography is generally admiring, but the author does mention criticism leveled against Rodham Clinton for her independent attitudes and for assuming active roles in her husband's administrations. The layout is attractive, the type slightly enlarged and well spaced, and both color and black-and-white photographs have been used. A chronology and a bibliography are supplied. Chris Sherman
