Evaluation comments:
“This book explores the lives of 100 inspirational women from basketball players, inventors, surfers, astronauts, activists, pilots and many more areas of expertise. Billy Eilish, Greta Thunberg and Zendaya are part of this book.”
“Love that these women are a diverse group and from all over the world. This book is both educational and entertaining.”
“Easy to read, told in a “fairy tale” style (“There once was a girl named…”) and gives a taste of what each woman contributed to the world.”
“I think this book is inspirational. Each woman has one page dedicated to them with some basic information that will probably inspire young readers to google them and find out more. I like that women are featured and celebrated.”
“Makes a great gift. I would buy this for elementary school teachers and families.”
