Learn about how you can make a difference, too.
Review Quotes
"Short spotlights feature brief, straightforward descriptions of the women's causes and accomplishments, accompanied by photos. A few names may be familiar, but many of the featured women, such as Sylvia Mendez, who helped desegregate California schools, and children's rights advocate Madonna Thunder Hawk, may be new to readers."--Booklist
