Eleanor Roosevelt was a president’s wife. She was married to President Franklin D. Roosevelt of the United States. Franklin was president for over twelve years. That was longer than any other president. No one else was the First Lady for as long as Eleanor.  \nEleanor spoke out for people who were being mistreated. She was the main writer of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. That is a paper used allover the world to bring better life to all people. She encouraged the United States to take part in the United Nations. She became the first person to represent her country there.  \nEleanor’s life was hard. She was not a pretty child. She felt alone. Her mother called her “Granny”  \n(Grandmother) because she looked older than her age. She was very serious. Her mother died when Eleanor was 8 years old. Her father died two years later. He had been drinking too much alcohol.  \nAfter that, Eleanor lived with her grandmother. But she did not feel loved. She felt that others were staring at her because she was very tall. It was easy to see her in a crowd.  \nWhen Eleanor was 14 she wrote,“Even if a person isnot beautiful, she can have a good life. Other people will listen to her if she is truthful and loyal.” That writing showed what a strong person Eleanor was.  \nAt age 15 Eleanor went to a school for girls in England. The Director of the school told the students to think for themselves. She said they should be true to what they believed. Eleanor remembered those things. She learned French, German, music, dance and other subjects at that school. She became more sure of herself. Then she was not so afraid of people.  \nWhen she was 17, Eleanor returned to the United States. Her family wanted her to come back so that she could be with other American young people. But again Eleanor felt very much alone. She did not know the other girls her age because she had been in England for so long.  \nEleanor heard about a group called the Junior League. They were women who worked in poor neighborhoods of New York City. They saw people working very hard for very little pay. The workplaces were uncomfortable and not safe. The homes were crowded and dirty. The Junior League ladies tried to make life better for workers. Eleanor joined these ladies.  \nShe visited homes and places of work. She took noteson the bad conditions. Then she showed her notes to newspaper reporters. They wrote articles about the bad conditions.  \nEleanor told people to buy “white label” products. To have a white label, products had to be made by people who received fair pay. The workers had to have good working conditions. The products had to be made by workers at least 16 years old. At that time many young children were working in factories.  \nEleanor spent many hours at a community center for the workers and their families. She taught them dancing and exercise. She showed them how movement, after long hours working in a small space, could improve their health. In the Junior League, Eleanor learned many things that would help her in her later life. She learned to make plans and carry them out. She saw that a person can bring changes.
