Each month, we select a brand new book that we love so much that we guarantee you'll love it too—and if you don't, we'll give you your money back. This month we're recommending Rad American Women A-Z by Kate Schatz.
A is for awe, which is what I feel reading about these women: Angela, Billie Jean, Carol, Dolores, Ella — women who have changed and inspired the world. Awe as in awesome, which is what this book is, what these women are. Awesome as in rad, the root of radical. It’s radical that this book exists: not only because we need a feminist primer for children that cuts across race, class, and gender politics, but because it’s cool. Cool, as in: this isn’t just a book for kids, it’s a book I want to gift to my mom, to all my friends. Rad American Women is as fun as it is informative, as approachable as it is inspiring.
