Girls Who Rocked the World: Heroines from Sacagawea to Sheryl Swoopes

117 pp. | Gareth | September, 1999 | Library ISBN 0-8368-2454-7 $$21.27
(4) 4-6 Girls Know Best series. Illustrated by Jerry McCann. These brief biographies describe women who accomplished great things in their teens. With unflagging cheerleading spirit, the pro-girl entries range from novelist S. E. Hinton to Marie Curie's daughter Irène. Quotes from contemporary teens on how they want to "rock the world" end each chapter. Unsophisticated line drawings and fuzzy black-and-white photographs illustrate both the biographies and the quotes.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
