Are you looking for something to read for Women's History Month, but aren't sure where to start? Then check out Modern Herstory, an illustrated history by Blair Imani.
Taking an inclusive approach to recent history, this book celebrates seventy women and nonbinary people who have changed the world we live in for the better. And though all of their contributions were great, the accomplishments of the people in these pages have too often been overlooked. So Imani's writing and the bold, beautiful illustrations of Monique Le shine a spotlight on the important stories of people who are changing our world right now- and inspire readers to do the same.
I thought that this was a fun, breezy approach to women's history! It highlights a few familiar people, but also spotlights the stories of many important, but less well known, figures from all backgrounds. The biographies are all fast and easy reads accessible for all ages, and the art in this book in particular really shines. If you're looking for a Women's History read, this is one I would definitely recommend!
