When Dorothy Nicolle first began writing children's non-fiction, the feedback she got from many teachers was that they were having trouble finding women in history whose stories were relevant to the concerns of young children.

Topical and relevant, Eglantine Jebb Saves the Children tells a story that will appeal to children and teachers alike.
