Cute book to start the convo that girls can do great things!
I bought this for my great-niece as an introduction to all the amazing women throughout history. Definitely some rather obscure people in this book, but I liked, that even though I’m an educated adult, there was still something for me to learn in this book. Keep in mind, this is a board book so it is simple (the author doesn’t go into much depth about each person) and meant for young children. While it could be construed by some as “boring” or too mature for young kids, it’s all about how you read it and how you frame it. This book is a great jumping off point (and a great start to a collection of like-themed books) for letting little girls know they can accomplish great things!

Awesome Indeed!
I bought this alphabet book as a baby shower gift. It showcases strong, powerful women. It will be my standard baby shower or 1st birthday gift.

A wonderful.tool.for long distance family time
This I found this book to be inspiring and well written. The colorful pictures and child friendly explanations appealed to my Granddaughter; I enjoyed reading ( and learning!) about these amazing women. My Granddaughter lives in Oregon and I live in Maryland; because of COVID 19 the only interaction that I can safely have with her is our daily FaceTime telephone call prior to her nap. Part of our daily ritual is that I read her a book. I'm so glad that books like this are available.....fun and inspiring

Inspiring Female Role Models, Great Illustrations, Terse Quotes
Even though this appears designed to be a very young child's board book, it could provide inspirational sound bite boosts to girls of any age (probably aged 8 and way up). It struck me as an A, B, C's moral equivalent of Page-a-Day tear off motivational phrase calendars. With much better graphics in the book than those calendars boast. I think it's great for what it is! Don't buy it for in-depth or even insightful yet terse biographies. Chelsea & Hillary Clinton's books are more of that. My big disappointment in this book, and reason for subtracting a star rating, is the letter "V". Why the heck did the author completely switch gears and throw in a mythological character?!? Why not use Virginia Woolf or Venus Williams or some other V-named real-life successful and inspiring woman or girl? That was a swing and a miss content-wise. The author also copped out on three letters of the alphabet. It's like she ran out of researching steam. But, there's a fun surprise at the end. Overall, I recommend it for what it is and what it does. Keep in mind the caveats above of what it is not before buying.

Perfect baby gift!
Perfect gift for our friends new baby! She and her husband are bookworms so I set out to find board books that would provide fun reading for their baby. And this fit the bill, especially since some closed minded areas of the country are hellbent on banning this book.

I wae excited to read this to my daughter. It arrived with the spine broken and it looked used. So disappointed. I would give zero stars if it were possible.

Amazing Author and even more amazing illustrations. Bought for a child but learned a lot myself!

Great choices of women of inspiration! And illustrations are a unique blend of mediums; cartoon illustrations with real-looking hair and unique swatches of textiles and textures. My daughter LOVES this book, especially the mirror at the end with the message that you too are an inspirational and AWESOME girl.
