"Profiled are 26 American women from the 18th through 21st centuries, who have made-or are still making--history as artists, writers, teachers, lawyers, or athletes. The women come from a variety of economic and ethnic backgrounds and many had to overcome extreme hardships. One woman represents each alphabetical letter beginning with Angela Davis, an activist, teacher, and writer, and concludes with Zora Neale Hurston, an anthropologist and writer."--Publisher.… (more)

Perfect for Women’s History Month, or any month in fact. Educating yourself about strong and powerful women can start any day. ( )

Following the classic alphabet format (A is for Apple) this book introduces young readers to strong, independent, and yes, rad women. There was a good mix of women I'd heard of, and ones I wasn't completely familiar with. A great addition to any library. ( )

Awesome idea. Has women from all different backgrounds that affected all different areas of life for those around them and future generations. (sports, academics, education, law, science, activism, etc.)
There's a woman for each letter of the alphabet. Some are from back in history and some are still alive today. ( )
