Audrey Evans: Not Your Ordinary Doctor

Audrey Evans was a perfect child. Not No one would have expected that when she grew up, she would make an important medical discovery, found the Ronald McDonald Houses, and start a school.

Kirkus Reviews calls this "an intimate and rewarding biography of a remarkable doctor" which "repeatedly encourages young readers to believe that they too can accomplish more than they might expect."

Most popular with children in Grades 2-6, but inspiring for all ages.
