Review

This non-fiction easy chapter book looks at some famous women in medicine through out history. It includes photos and highlighted facts about these women to increase reader interest. A weakness of the book is the photographs (or lack of them). Some of the pictures or photos of the women being discussed are not at the start of the article. Readers have to turn a page or two to see the actual photo. And in one case, there is no picture of the women being discussed at all. For young readers this would be disappointing. The book does do a nice job of depicting women in a variety of areas of medicine. Especially in areas that are not as well known.

Overall Book Score: good
