Reviews"History has too often been written by men and about men and it's refreshing to see women being brought to the fore...Every school library should have a copy"-- The Book Bag, "One children's books series trying to fight back... by telling the inspiring stories of women who overcame adversity and made history by pursuing their childhood dreams."-- Toronto Star, "The kind of books that adults will covet and collect as well... The language and structure is simple enough for young readers, while a biographical timeline at the end of each book offers greater historical complexity" -- Irish Times, "Informative text...smartly illustrated... Another batch of successful instalments in the series" -- School Library Journal SLJ, "Strikingly illustrated, they're superb first biographies for younger readers." -- The Huffington Post
