One hundred women — scientists, athletes, activists, artists, leaders, pirates — each given a full-page portrait and a page of their story, written directly to the child reading it. Favilli and Francesca Cavallo started with a crowdfunding campaign in 2016 that broke records. The new edition updates the collection with more recent figures and more global representation. Not a book about women who overcame obstacles to succeed in male-defined terms — a book about women who defined success on their own terms across every field and every culture. The most widely gifted children's book about women's achievement of the last decade and the one that most completely refuses to present any single model of what a girl's life should look like.
