From Booklist:

Gr. 5-8. Heretic or champion for religious freedom? Traitor or feminist heroine? This excellent biography explores the many labels history has bestowed upon Anne Hutchinson, offering a restrained portrait of a woman who remained committed to her beliefs despite threats to herself and her family. Stille neither glorifies nor condemns her but rather reveals her strength of character in the context of her historical era, enhancing the interesting, accessible narrative with numerous full-color illustrations. Just as attractively packaged as other books in the Signature Lives: Colonial America series, which includes titles on John Winthrop, William Penn, Roger Williams, and Lord Baltimore, this will make an outstanding addition to middle-school collections. Like the rest of the book, the time line, chronology, and glossary offer attractively formatted support for student research. Roger Leslie
