In October 1929, the stock market crashed, leaving many people in America homeless and hungry. During those dark times, America needed a boost. They found that in a child star named Shirley Temple. As one of the first film stars whose voices could be heard in movies, Shirley inspired a hurting nation, and helped to heal it. After her film career ended, Shirley helped people in other areas of life, thus becoming a heroine in more ways than one. This children's book, written by A.J. Chilson and illustrated with public domain photos, introduces kids to one of the first child stars in movie history.
