In the 1950s, it was a man's world. Girls weren't supposed to act smart,
tough, or ambitious. Even though, deep inside, they may have felt that
way. And then along came Hillary. Brave, brilliant, and unstoppable, she
was out to change the world.
They said a woman couldn't be a mother and a lawyer. Hillary was both.
They said a woman shouldn't be too strong or too smart. Hillary was
fearlessly herself.
It didn't matter what people said--she was born to lead.
With illustrations packed full of historical figures and details, this
gorgeous and informative picture book biography is perfect for every
budding leader. Includes a timeline, artist's note, and bibliography.
