Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley. This book contains 52 one-page biographies of amazing women who challenged the system, had adventures, and changed the world. These women come from all over the world and while these biographies are not extensive, they give a great overview and make the reader want to know more. A great and inspirational compilation. I'l confess from the get-go that I'm a sucker for any book that features Bessie Coleman, Kate Warne, and Mary Anning and puts Queen Bess on its cover, to boot. A great introduction to amazing women for younger readers. The short one-page biographies omit most of the less-pleasant aspects of these women's lives (racism, early death) and focus on their accomplishments. The colorful illustrations should capture the attention of even the youngest audience, and the illustrated borders can be used as a game—they're sprinkled with a variety of items connected to each woman's story. Additionally, the author focused on lesser-known amazing women. There's no Marie Curie or Amelia Earhart, but there are Ynes Mexia and Valentina Tereshkova. Fewer than half of the women featured were white Americans: 20 were from other countries and 17 are women of color, with some overlap between the two. This book would be best for the 7-10 age group or as a read-aloud for those even younger. Older readers will find it a a little light on information, but may find it useful as a starting point for discovering amazing women with whom they were unfamiliar and then doing their own research to learn more about their lives. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
