Twenty-nine (thirty if you count the author) women are highlighted in this graphic novel. Some names we know (Mae Jemison) and others maybe not so much, but all of these women have somehow broken the barriers of patriarchy, color, sex, women’s health, and even gender. Meet Arab rappers, concubine empresses, dancers, authors, and more. Thirteen and up is the targeted audience due to sexual references and language. But adults, please read it, too! ~ Reviewed by Jeanette
