Description
Step into the life of Henrietta “Netta” Franklin, a trailblazer in education and social reform whose influence helped shape modern thought on nurturing young minds. In “Netta: A Biography of Henrietta Franklin,” Monk Gibbon crafts a vivid portrait of a woman who worked tirelessly to bridge tradition and progress.
A passionate supporter of Charlotte Mason’s groundbreaking educational philosophy, Franklin championed intellectual growth, moral character, and child-centric teaching methods. As a pivotal leader in the Parents’ National Education Union, she connected parents, teachers, and communities, building an enduring foundation for collaborative learning.
Franklin’s life wasn’t confined to committee meetings or public speeches. She radiated warmth, brought joy to her family, and cultivated friendships that crossed cultural and social boundaries. Gibbon weaves her personal life into the story of her public achievements, creating a compelling narrative of resilience and purpose.
This engaging biography invites readers to explore the life of a woman whose work continues to inspire educators and parents seeking to foster wisdom, empathy, and character in the next generation.
