Clara Barton: Courage to Serve tells all about the life and service of the lady who would found the American Red Cross. A timid and shy child, Clara grew up to show great courage in dangerous times. During the Civil War, Clara delivered supplies right to the battlefields where she cared for hundreds, if not thousands, of wounded Union and Confederate soldiers. After the war, Clara saw another need in helping the victims of natural disasters like hurricanes, floods, and fires. She founded the American Red Cross and persuaded the U.S. government to support this important mission. This caring and bold woman worked tirelessly to rescue people in need when no one else would. Her legacy continues today in the lives of the many Red Cross workers who put the needs of others before their own, just as their founder did. This book is part of the Heroes of History for Young Readers series which captivates younger children with rhyming poems and unforgettable color illustrations.
