Description
K-Gr 3—In this brief but elegant introduction to 13 women who 'persisted'—such as Harriet
Tubman, Nellie Bly, and Sonia Sotomayor—the author details the many ways that women have
refused to take no for an answer. Instead, they rigorously pursued lofty, inspiring, and purposeful
aims for the betterment of themselves and others. Readers see that working toward a far-reaching
objective is a virtue. Rather than offering a more in-depth history of any single figure, this book
explains the meaning of persistence and places it in a positive light. The artwork depicts a
museum gallery with students looking at portraits of the 13 women, including one of Hillary Clinton
wearing a red pantsuit, though she is not mentioned in the text. After a brief introduction, the
format is largely consistent, with a paragraph about each subject's goal, a quote by her that
exemplifies her persistence, and an illustration. As Florence Griffith Joyner said, 'When anyone
tells me I can't do anything…I'm just not listening anymore.' VERDICT Use as a read-aloud to
promote discussion, raise questions for research, and share related experiences. And since the
book is dedicated to Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a current connection could be made, too.—Myra
Zarnowski, City University of New York Read more Praise for She Persisted:
