* "A striking, humance portrait.... Diamond's perceptive black-and-white drawings blend well with reproductions of Lange's photographs."
--Booklist, starred review
"Meltzer writes as accessibly to younger children as he does to advanced readers of his distinguished nonfiction. The story is outstanding,"
--Publishers Weekly

--Practical Photography

Reseña del editor:
At seventeen, Dorothea Lange knew she would be a photographer--even though she had never taken a picture. She had grown up observing the life of the poor people in the street with an artist's keen eye. As a young photographer, Dorothea focused that eye on the hungry and homeless people of the Great Depression. She traveled across the country, documenting their struggles. Today her pictured are treasured not only as works of art, but as testaments to human strength.
