Get Inspired By The Powerful Sheroes In This Feminist Collection Of Short Biographies
“This book is an antidote to the erasure of women from our history.”―Vicki Leon, author of Uppity Women of Ancient Times
Discover some of the most awesome women in history. Now is the time to acknowledge the greatness of women!
Sheroes. Women hold up half the sky and, most days, do even more of the heavy lifting, including childbearing and child-rearing–and often, after all after a long day at the office. Women have always been strong, true sheroes, oftentimes unacknowledged. As we try and shake off a patriarchal hangover, women are coming into their own, fully embracing their fiery fempower and celebrating their no-holds-barred individuality. It is past time to acknowledge successful women of the world for what they are: super women as true role models.
Super women as female role models. From the foremothers who blazed trails and broke barriers, to today’s women warriors in sports, science, cyberspace, city hall, the lecture hall, and the silver screen, The Book of Awesome Women paints 200 portraits of powerful and inspiring role models for women and girls poised to become super women of the future.
Women you will meet in The Book of Awesome Women include:
Dian Fossey Martina Navratilova Sojourner Truth Indira Ghandi Aretha Franklin Margaret Mead Coretta Scott King Georgia O’Keeffe Jackie Joyner-Kersee Joan Baez Eleanor Roosevelt Anita Hill Wangari Maathai And many more
