Bober's titles have appeal across a wide spectrum of ages, and have garnered starred reviews from Booklist, School Library Journal, Kirkus Reviews, and Voice of Youth Advocates, among others. They have been acclaimed in The New York Times Book Review as among the best of their genre being written today. Abigail Adams: Witness to a Revolution was chosen as the winner of the Boston Globe/​Horn Book Award for nonfiction, as well as the Golden Kite Award of the SCBWI. Her biography of Thomas Jefferson caught the eye of Ken Burns and, as a result, she served as a consultant for his PBS television documentary: "Thomas Jefferson" and appeared as a historian ("talking head") throughout the program.
