A beautifully written and illustrated book of vignettes about those who fought so hard for suffrage. Poignant and powerful stories that make women's history - America's history - come alive. To quote the author: “Every women deserves the liberty to choose her own life's path, to find and claim her own power, and ultimately to be her own superhero. Demand it of yourself. Demand it of the world you live in.” This message will resonate with and inspire readers. I will be buying several copies to give as books to the special women, of diverse ages, in my life.

T his is a great overview of the American Suffrage Movement with beautiful illustrations. It is the history that we were never taught in school. Thanks, Ms. Wall, for filling a gap in my education. Wish I could have read this when I was in school. I recommend it for everyone, starting with middle schoolers. The chapters are just a few pages so I'm planning to read them to my grandchildren as bedtime stories.
