Two Friends: Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass | Dean Robbins

2 posts | 4 read | 4 to read

Some people had rights, while others had none.Why shouldn't they have them, too? Two friends, Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass, get together for tea and conversation. They recount their similar stories fighting to win rights for women and African Americans. The premise of this particular exchange between the two is based on a statue in their hometown of Rochester, New York, which shows the two friends having tea. The text by award-winning writer Dean Robbins teaches about the fight for women's and African Americans' rights in an accessible, engaging manner for young children. "Two Friends" is beautifully illustrated by Selina Alko and Sean Qualls, the husband-and-wife team whose "The Case for Loving" received three starred reviews! "Two Friends" includes back matter with photos of Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass.

DominiqueL I have never heard of this book and would have never thought of this, but now I am very intrigued to read it. 6y

DrSpalding I have seen this book. Are you sure it's historical fiction? What is fictitious about it? 6y

emilykwilkins I believe that it is considered historical fiction because the characters in the book were real people and the subject matter was also true, but i think it would be considered fictitious because we don‘t really know if this conversation actually happened or not. 6y

DrSpalding We know they had a relationship historically speaking I think this would be considered biography. 6y

Special place of honor for Frederick Douglas at Seneca Falls as one of the foremost male supporters of women's suffrage.

BookishFeminist Frederick Douglass was a boss. His writing is some of my favorite. 8y
