She persisted : 13 American women who changed the world Cover Image Book

She persisted : 13 American women who changed the world / written by Chelsea Clinton ; illustrated by Alexandra Boiger.

Clinton, Chelsea, (author.). Boiger, Alexandra, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Throughout American history, there have always been women who have spoken out for what's right, even when they have to fight to be heard. In early 2017, Senator Elizabeth Warren's refusal to be silenced in the Senate inspired a spontaneous celebration of women who persevered in the face of adversity. She Persisted is for everyone who has ever wanted to speak up but has been told to quiet down, for everyone who has ever tried to reach for the stars but was told to sit down, and for everyone who has ever been made to feel unworthy or unimportant or small.-- --Provided by publisher.
