A great read for anyone! Being a children's book it just gives a very brief overview of each woman, the audiobook is only 10 minutes long. But there's a range of ethnicities and professions covered which is great, and the overall message is really positive.

A quick read that I finished in under 10 minutes. An interesting children's book with amazing illustrations.
I read this to my mom and I am now recommending it to my older sister.

Sure, you could say that Chelsea took advantage of her status and a current event to produce this book. But that in no way diminishes the end result. It was beautifully illustrated, and the choices of the people to include shows that thought was put into it. Each story was so brief but well written that it really sparked a desire to research more about the person’s life. That probably was not easy, and earns this book much admiration. I hope it really inspires many young women to stand up and be all want to be.

I like the idea of the book. And some of the choices are surprising, which is nice. But the writing takes away from the idea. And there's no afterword to rescue it. Not a bad book, just not as good as the idea itself.
