Stubby the War Dog by Ann Bausum5/19/2023 ![]() ![]() Both books were published in 2014 by National Geographic: Sergeant Stubby (for adult readers) and Stubby the War Dog (for children). She wrote twin titles about the stray dog smuggled to Europe during World War I who returned to a hero’s welcome. The almost-forgotten story of Stubby lured Bausum away from social justice history temporarily. Previous works have explored voting rights, immigration, and free speech, among other topics. Her previous title, Stonewall (Viking: 2015), is among the first nonfiction books to introduce teens to gay rights history. In the case of these and other books, Bausum strives to bring the nation’s social justice history to life in ways that empower and inspire readers young and old alike. Her newest title, The March Against Fear (National Geographic: 2017), is her third work to examine the civil rights movement in the American South. Her works often focus on under-told stories from the past, and she frequently explores issues of social justice. Ann Bausum writes about history for readers of all ages from her home in southern Wisconsin. ![]()
