Elizabeth Warren’s Big, Bold Plans
by Laurie Ann Thompson (Author) and Susanna Chapman (Illustrator)

Booktalk: Discover the inspiring story of Senator Elizabeth Warren and her lifelong commitment to working hard and advocating for equality in this picture book biography written by one of my former students.

Elizabeth Warren always has a plan. As a child, she wanted to help others by becoming a teacher. When discrimination forced her to surrender that dream, she found another path: She became a lawyer. Then life changed again, and Elizabeth became a professor of law–and she didn’t stop there. No matter her job title, Senator Elizabeth Warren has always worked to ensure that people with more power help those with less.
