*Review Contributed by Karen Yingling, Staff Reviewer*
This is very dense with information, and the print is very small in order to fit so much in and still include the detailed, richly colored illustrations. This is fine for high school readers, but middle grade ones who are drawn to the graphic novel format because it is easier to read might struggle with this.
Wonderful Women of the World is an excellent resource to add to a biography collection that includes Vashti Harrison’s Little Leaders, The Great Book of Badass Women: 15 Fearless and Inspirational Women that Changed History by Rachel Walsh, 50 Fearless Women Who Made American History: An American History Book for Kids by Jenifer Bazzit and Krull’s First Ladies.
