She Persisted: 13 American Women Who Changed the World by Chelsea Clinton

5.0

I loved the fact that I learned about an American premier ballerina who was Native American. Her name was Maria Tallchief, and they wanted her to change her name to something that sounded Russian, but she persists and refused.

Claudette Colvin was added also, which I appreciated! Beautifully written and illustrated!
