The perfect introduction for learning about women throughout history
who dared to do the extraordinary! Inspire our new generation of women
to explore, discover, persist, succeed, and fight like a girl! A great
gift for girls 9-12!
Women have been doing amazing, daring, and dangerous things for years,
but they're rarely mentioned in our history books as adventurers,
daredevils, or rebels. This new compilation of brief biographies
features women throughout history who have risked their lives for
adventure--many of whom you may not know, but all of whom you'll WANT to
know, such as:
Annie Edson Taylor, the first person who dared to go over Niagara
Falls in a barrel
Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman who dared to fly in space
Helen Gibson, the first woman who dared to be a professional stunt
person
And many more! If you and your child enjoyed She Persisted by Chelsea
Clinton, Little Dreamers, Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls or
Girls Think of Everything, you will love reading Women Who Dared.
