This is a collected biography of 25 women who overcame adversity to do something amazing. The book is separated into sections based on where the feats occurred—sky, peaks, ice, land, and water. There are some familiar women included (Amelia Earhart, Zora Neal Hurston, etc.) but there are also many lesser known women profiled here. The representation of cultures and abilities is wide and inclusive.

Recommended for readers 8 and up. Reviewed by Jessie Trafton, Skidompha Library, Damariscotta, ME
