Changes for Rebecca (American Girl Collection)

3.5, rounded up.

Conditions are awful in the coat factory that Rebecca's uncle and cousin work in, so the workers are planning to strike. Like several other Changes books, Rebecca makes a speech though realistically, am not sure people would listen to a ten year old implore them about improving labor conditions. Still, things work out neatly in the end, and both the book and Looking Back are a good introduction for kids to labor movements.
