(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Rebecca Guay. The authors introduce twenty-six women who either lived a life of criminality or were morally condemned for their actions. Each lighthearted, succinct summary is followed by a one-page graphic novel–format conversation--sardonic and mirthful--between Yolen and Stemple. Biblical figures, pirates, thieves and spies, murderesses and gangsters, rulers and queens are included as the authors consistently point out the very fine line between right and wrong. Websites.
