(3) K-3 Illustrated by Alexandra Boiger. Clinton directly addresses young girls, seeking to inspire them with the achievements of thirteen notable women in U.S. history. From familiar subjects (Harriet Tubman) to relatively unknown individuals (Virginia Apgar), each woman--despite discouragement--made a major contribution because "she persisted." Watercolor and ink illustrations denote time and place; a quote by each woman is included.
