Description

Normal Women Making History for 900 Years by Philippa Gregory For centuries, women's stories have been overlooked in history books, leaving us with a skewed view of the past. But the truth is, ordinary women have been making extraordinary contributions for 900 years. From farmers to highwaywomen, pirates to inventors, these women have been protesting, working, playing, taking risks, and surviving - often in the face of adversity. This book tells their story, a tale of ingenuity, diversity, rebellion, and sisterhood. It's a story of women who refused to be defined by their roles, who took control of their lives and made their mark on the world. With simplified, age-tailored content and illustrations by award-winning printmaker Alexis Snell, this edition is perfect for younger readers who want to learn about the unsung heroes of history.
