Their stories need to be told, and Meghan tells these stories eloquently and in a way that will pull younger readers off their screens to enjoy.” –Janet Kelly, Former Secretary of the Commonwealth of Virginia and President of Virginia’s Kids Belong

Getting this book into my students’ hands has been amazing! My students see themselves in this book and it makes them incredibly happy!” –Ronnie Eyre, 5th grade teacher, curriculum writer, and creator of A Teacher’s Wonderland, LLC
“When reading this with kids, the bold words make for great discussion and to discuss all walks of life trying to achieve one item–women’s equal rights. With such a variety of women represented, they all somehow seemed hooked together. The additional references at the end of each chapter make it easy to continue growth on the particular one that truly interests you as a reader. Meghan’s book shows students women to look up to and try to be like!” –Donna Phillips, Fifer Middle School librarian
