CBC Showcase: Celebrating National Women's History Month

cover Amelia to Zora: Twenty-six Women Who Changed the World

by Cynthia Chin-Lee
Illustrated by Megan Halsey and Sean Addy

History has always relied upon the contributions of women. But these contributions have often gone unrecorded or unnoticed. In Amelia to Zora, 26 women and their unique voices, visions, and victories are registered. Young readers will find inspiration and motivation in each woman's story and her powerful message.

From sports figures like Babe Didrikson Zaharias and Kristi Yamaguchi to scientists, such as Grace Hopper, and writers, such as Zora Neale Hurston, our world has been influenced by women and their hard work and zeal for the life they love.

Beautiful, intricate collages spotlight each woman and her special gift.
