Editorial Reviews
Review
Although classified as a children's book for middle grade readers, this is recommended for a wider age spectrum into adult readership, as it documents the achievements of black women from slavery to modern times and provides a thorough history of black women and heroines. The entire family will benefit from a reading of these accessible, important biographical sketches and histories. -- Midwest Book Review
