This was such an amazing book – in every way. While there are some things I did know and am aware of myself (through news, the experiences of others I know, and to some extent, my own experiences), I still learned a lot through this book.

What I learned and loved:

- women suffragists around the world (both from the past and present), many of whom I had not known of before. And I appreciated that the book also included some of the men who helped in this cause.
- the timeline of women’s rights across nations. I totally loved the sections devoted to the timelines and the visuals used here as well (including, and especially showing the world-map to highlight the progress)
- loved the way the book focuses on individual women from around the world and over the ages in the initial sections and then moves on to the overall history and geography of women’s rights, along with so many other interesting snippets of information
- the narrative is simple and yet one that works for all ages (so thanks to both the author and the translator here)
- last but not the least, the artwork is brilliant and vibrant and full of details that will be sure to delight all its readers!

To summarize it, at the risk of repeating myself, this was an amazing book – in every way!!

Thanks to NetGalley for the digital ARCs of the book. This is my honest feedback.

I was hoping for a book with a nuanced, inclusive (read: not whitewashed) treatment of women's suffrage and rights, and I was not disappointed! While I would have loved slightly more inclusion of intersectional issues (ex. in the gender pay gap section) and somewhat different language (ex. born to *enslaved* parents, rather than 'into a family of slaves'), I appreciated the attention to detail and accessible language used to address difficult topics. The final resource section for teachers with writing prompts and quizzes is especially heplful!

Citizen She! By Caroline Stevan was such an incredible kids book and honestly this would be an amazing edition to anyone's library! Stevan doesn't just stay in The US and talk about white women's suffrage (which was still incredibly patriarchal and racist) but reports from around the world!
