Clara Barton: Founder of the American Red Cross by Augusta Stevenson is from MODG’s 3rd grade Social Studies reading list.
The Childhood of Famous Americans history series has an excellent book on Clara Barton. The series provides a delightful approach to history for children’s literature by looking at early events in the life of a historical figure that shape future achievements. In Clara Barton, you see that she had a love for healing creatures and people from an early age. This chapter book has many fun stories about Clara Barton that leave a lasting excitement to continue learning more about her and the American Red Cross.
