Pirate Queen: The Legend of Grace O'Malley by Tony Lee

3.0

This is more a 3.5. This is a hugely important story to tell. Again, I find myself reading a book and thinking dang, I wish I had this in middle school or even high school! I would have LOVED reading about a woman pirate at 13...even more than I did at 25! However, this book wasn't perfect. It definitely could have had a stronger message of why Grace fought beyond simply her dead husbands. Still, it's a cool story and the history geek in me loved the story itself, if not the writing.
