MY REVIEW: I so enjoyed "50 Fearless Women Who Made History: An American History Book for Kids"--after all, "Fearless Women" are AWESOME! Author Jenifer Bazzit has included 50 fascinating, fabulous women from all walks of life, races, cultural backgrounds, and fields of study. They represent different time periods in American history, spanning centuries from earliest colonial settlements through present day 21st century life in the United States. The biographies are organized chronologically by the era of the women's accomplishments, and a history of the times accompanies each feature. A glossary is included to help understand the terminology of the varying time periods. Here are some of the amazing women whom you will "meet": Pocahontas; Abigail Adams; Harriet Beecher Stowe; Nellie Bly; Eleanor Roosevelt; Rosa Parks; Sandra Day O'Connor; Sally Ride; and Oprah Winfrey. Women account for approximately half of the world's population, and their contributions to life as we know it are immeasurable. This is a very enjoyable and enlightening book, not just for children, but for female and male readers of all ages.
