Fantastic submitted by trina05 on July 6, 2019, 11:11pm Great original illustrations and informative summaries of important women.

Little Leaders: Bold Women in Black History submitted by poptart887 on July 28, 2020, 11:29pm This is a great book. It has a short summery of so many great women in Black history who have accomplished so much! This is a great starting book for young kids. It's got just the right amount of information on each woman to keep them interested. This book is great for young girls in general because it shows them that they can be and do anything no matter what others say or do!

Nice Capsule Biographies submitted by Meginator on June 23, 2021, 5:45pm This book presents brief biographies of over 40 extraordinary Black women, including both well-known and lesser-known figures. Many of these women were the first to reach a certain accomplishment, while others are among the best and most influential in their relative fields. Readers of all ages will appreciate Harrison’s clear, concise prose and the accompanying illustrations, and the book makes for a fantastic jumping-off point for further explorations.
