The instant New York Times bestseller!
From the author of Little Leaders: Bold Women in Black History comes
the highly anticipated follow-up, a beautifully illustrated collectible
detailing the lives of women creators around the world.
Featuring the true stories of 35 women creators, ranging from writers to
inventors, artists to scientists, Little Dreamers: Visionary Women
Around the World inspires as it educates. Readers will meet
trailblazing women like Mary Blair, an American modernist painter who
had a major influence on how color was used in early animated films,
actor/inventor Hedy Lamarr, environmental activist Wangari Maathai,
architect Zaha Hadid, filmmaker Maya Deren, and physicist Chien-Shiung
Wu. Some names are known, some are not, but all of the women had a
lasting effect on the fields they worked in.
The charming, information-filled full-color spreads show the Dreamers as
both accessible and aspirational so readers know they, too, can grow up
to do something amazing.
