I want to shout about this book from the rooftops! It's the best introduction to women’s history in America I’ve ever seen!
Written in the form of an alphabet book, the 25 women in this book (X is for the women we don’t yet know) are an impressive group. Clear thought has been given to diversity of accomplishments, race, time period, and more. My favorite thing about this book is that the women represented in the pages are ones that children may not have heard of- Dolores Huerta, Kate Bornstein, Temple Grandin, Hazel Scott, Wilma Mankiller, and Yuri Kochiyama, just to name a few! Although this book is written for children, the gorgeous art and smart summaries makes this a winner for all ages.
Definitely Worth a Read submitted by Beth Manuel on June 17, 2015, 12:50pm This was a fantastic book that exemplifies diversity, honor and tenacity of a wide range of American women. I'd recommend it for all ages, not just girls, but girls should be introduced to these wonderful women. There were some I was not familiar with and others I was but not so much their back story. Check this out!
