Review

In this well illustrated biography about Hillary Clinton we get to meet Hillary as a young girl. We see events that depict how she she grew up, and life experiences that influenced her and impacted her life to be the strong woman she is today. I feel this book will be a great resource for girls of all ages. I can help them get inspired to be a leader, to do something that makes a difference in the world. I really liked this book, and if I were still teaching history I would have it in my classroom!

Overall Book Score: very good
