She Persisted is a series of books geared toward young girls about women who have overcome obstacles to do great things and be strong women. This particular installment focuses on Temple Grandin and tells of her life as an autistic woman. Despite her struggles with autism and learning to cope in a world that seemed very uncomfortable to her, she found ways to self-soothe. Grandin has become an advocate for autism awareness, a world-renowned scientist, and an animal behaviorist. It is through her study of animals that she devised coping and self-soothing mechanisms.

Chelsea Clinton is the driving force behind this series of books. She wanted to give a voice to strong women that young girls could admire. Lyn Miller-Lachmann writes this particular book, and she is the one that read this version on Audible. I am looking forward to reading more in the series.
