"The kind of books that adults will covet and collect as well... The language and structure is simple enough for young readers, while a biographical timeline at the end of each book offers greater historical complexity" * Irish Times * 'These books are designed with admirable simplicity... the difficult, often traumatic detail of an entire life is distilled with tremendous skill into its essence; the result is age-appropriate for yet unpatronising to five-year-olds, and hums with a sense of transgressive inspiration' * The Times Literary Supplement * 'This small, stylish book...will introduce young children to the suffragists and their cause...explained in a simple, inspirational way, and leavened by Ana Sanfelippo's charming illustrations' * New York Times * "Strikingly illustrated, they're superb first biographies for younger readers." * The Huffington Post * 'A gorgeously designed series of books about achieving great things after dreaming big as a child.

Packed with great, easy-to-read facts at the back for avid minds' * Smallish * 'Empowering books EVERY child should read...
