I highly recommend the Harvey Milk biography discussed below. Attractive illustrations and a simple story line make this a great introduction to this modern-day hero. Ages 5-10.

Dear friend of Two Lives,

We hope you've all seen the fabulous new movie Milk, about the life of Harvey Milk, starring Sean Penn and directed by Gus Van Sant.

As some of you may know, Two Lives published the only book for children about this important gay rights figure several years ago. We're pleased to report that the movie has generated new interest in the book.

To celebrate both the movie and the book, we created a special website all about Harvey - you can see it here:

www.harveymilkstory.com<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001u4Km5Jit-k5dVLsTAOiXUK-XSnM84DER3eZht_dDeXvYp2wcIUOlBu5LUPi2mrMjRKBJSIMJTo7q8gkllPXAK4vJg5el6sbK8WsUfeMoa-cCt0BU36ppH_kVrd8MZ0Z7>

And if you haven't read the book and shared it with your kids, maybe this is a good time to do that. You might also want to buy a copy to donate to your local middle school - just imagine how great it would be for kids to find Harvey Milk in their school library!

Happy New Year! Bobbie, Sally & Laurina, at Two Lives
