Our own Jana Hausburg has written and published a book, It wasn't much, that will be a wonderful addition to media centers all across our state. This book chronicles the lives of 10 Oklahomans. What is unique about this book are the individuals themselves. They are for the most part ordinary citizens, who, due to circumstances beyond their control find themselves in extraordinary situations, and find the courage to do the right thing. The time span is intriguing, too. From World War II to the Iraq war and time in between, Hausburg brings the lives of Oklahoman's to life.
These mini-biographies would enhance any units on Oklahoma history. Included with the biographies are nice side-bars explaining in depth the more difficult concepts presented in the text. This is a reader friendly book that I would recommend for public libraries and media centers. Readers between 8-12 will find this book interesting.
