Publisher's Synopsis

Brilliant girls and boys everywhere will enjoy these stunningly illustrated, absorbing stories.

Each one introduces kids to women who have reached for the stars (sometimes literally) and stretched the boundaries of science, technology, and culture, changing the world along the way. Discover female innovators and inventors from past and present, including Rosalind Franklin, Marie Curie, Lisa Meitner, Jane Goodall, Katherine Johnson, Chien-Shiung Woo, Indira Nath, Wanda Diaz Merced, and many others. Every story comes with an engaging activity that will nurture a child's own varied skills and inspire them to pursue a treasured goal or aspiration. It's exceptional reading for the next generation of go-getters, trailblazers, doers, and dreamers.
