    About this audiobook

    Eleanor Roosevelt was born in 1884 to a rich family, but she had an unhappy childhood. Her parents and younger brother died, so Eleanor was raised by her grandmother. After going to school in England, Eleanor married Franklin Roosevelt, who became the president of the United States.

    Eleanor's life was dedicated to helping others, including helping to create the United Nations.
