Critics Review

Best children’s books for spring - “Strikingly illustrated, they’re superb first biographies for younger readers.”

* The Huffington Post *“The kind of books that adults will covet and collect as well… The language and structure is simple enough for young readers, while a biographical timeline at the end of each book offers greater historical complexity”  * Irish Times *“Brilliantly accessible and inspiring”  * Rhino Reads *

“A QUIRKY kids biography series“

* The Voice *“One children’s books series trying to fight back… by telling the inspiring stories of women who overcame adversity and made history by pursuing their childhood dreams.”  * Toronto Star *‘Sumptuously illustrated hardbacks, they take the life stories of famous women in history and retell them in a child-friendly way’ * Daily Mail *
