Emmeline Pankhurst was an amazing woman!! She fought gender norms for her time to help woman gain voting rights. The illustrations are gorgeous and engaging.

Every book in this series is a pleasure, this time a great feminist hero. Suffragette Emmekine is a great way to introduce children to discussions about equality and great historical women. I love this series and it’s wonderful that children’s literature teaches about all these important figures and wish we had them when I was young

tl;dr: Women who make change are the best.
I love the idea of telling the youngest readers about a woman who changed their lives, long before they were born. This well-written book tells the story of Pankhurst, the suffragette. I like that this book is about a woman who isn't a household name, but should be. The illustrations are very nice, having a sort of vintage feel.

A beautiful book that I read just in time for International Women's Day. A gorgeous illustrated book telling the story of a giant of the women's movement and what drew her to that path. perfect for the little lady in your life.

The biographical information here feels rather too concise, and is written very simplistically. The illustrations though, with a charming vintage feel to them, are the triumph of the book.

I think this book is too simplistic. My guess is it is for ages birth through 3. Just a very basic overview. The whole book can be summed up with one sentence. Emmeline pankhurst wanted women to vote. That’s it. The entire idea of the book. No why, no depth, etc.
