He was constantly counting, measuring, and observing things that caught his interest. He loved sharing his discoveries and reading the discoveries of others. But when a famous Frenchman published a book about America, Jefferson was appalled: all the information in the book was wrong. The author insisted that America was a wretched, dismal place, where birds could not sing, dogs could not bark, and everything and everyone was puny and weak. Thomas Jefferson resolved to set the record straight-with numbers-and prove to the world that the new nation was worthy of investment. But how do you show that a country is plentiful in an age when photography hasn't been invented yet? Mara Rockliff, master of children's nonfiction, details another little-known moment in math and natural history.]]></description><link>https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13503707</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13503707</guid><category><![CDATA[EAUDIOBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rockliff, Mara]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/13503707981</comments><format>EAUDIOBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781666552461/MC.GIF&amp;client=jecop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Around America to Win the Vote]]></title><description><![CDATA[In April 1916, Nell Richardson and Alice Burke set out from New York City in a little yellow car, embarking on a bumpy, muddy, unmapped journey ten thousand miles long.

The women's suffrage movement was in full swing, and Nell and Alice would not let anything keep them from spreading the word about equal voting rights for women. Braving blizzards, deserts, and naysayers-not to mention a whole lot of tires stuck in the mud-the two courageous friends made their way through the cities and towns of America to further their cause.

In her classroom, she encouraged her students to see the ordinary as extraordinary and make art from the so-called commonplace around them. She embodied this in her own work--making screen prints and collage that celebrated the values and themes of hope, love, justice, and peace. This picture book biography approaches Corita's life from the point of view of one of her students. From this lens, readers get a sense of what it might have been like to be in the classroom with her--her energy, her inspiring presence, her own fascinations. Paired with this view are illustrations from award-winning artist Melissa Sweet in Corita's style--screen prints and collage--that adorn the pages with splashes of Corita's own words and wisdom"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S132C2767665</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S132C2767665</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rockliff, Mara]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2767665132</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Revolutionary Art of Sister Corita Kent</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781419752216/MC.GIF&amp;client=jecop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Perfect Fit]]></title><description><![CDATA["Discover how the Lane Bryant clothing brand changed the way we buy clothes forever by celebrating bodies of all shapes and sizes in this inclusive picture book biography of a Lithuanian immigrant with a brilliant eye for fashion and business"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S132C2653875</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S132C2653875</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rockliff, Mara]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://jeffcolibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2653875132</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How Lena &quot;Lane&quot;
