What a wonderful anthology of amazing women! This anthology showcases numerous women from all around the world, not just the US. Some of them are well known like Beyonce, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Malala Yousafzai. While others are more obscure like Teara Fraser, Mariana Costa Checa, and Ellen Ochoa. My favorite stories were the following: -Leiomy Maldonado because her story was told with two timelines highlighting her life when she was younger and struggling with being transgender versus her life now. The dual timelines were an effective way to showcase the progress she made. -Brene Brown because her story was told using her technique: BRAVING. BRAVING is an acronym for behaviors/values she uses every day to help her live her best life. Her story was organized around each behavior which I found to be so clever! -Keiko Agena because her story was so relatable. Her story centered around Asian American representation in media and as an Asian American this one hit home for me. This story was written by Sarah Kuhn, an author I am familiar with (I’ve read one of her books and loved it). Since this is an anthology, there is something for everyone. There is a lot of diversity from the types of women to their accomplishments. The art styles also vary! I enjoyed seeing all the different types of art. All the contributors are either female or nonbinary which adds to the inspiring narrative of the collection. Overall, I loved this anthology of astounding women, created by an incredibly talented group of female and nonbinary artists and writers. If you’re looking for some girl power inspiration, be sure to consider this book! This was really interesting! One of the things that fascinated me most was when the writer/artist explained their personal connection to the woman they were portraying. That connection gave a little extra depth--a sort of "Here's why I care, and why you should, too!" Definitely will recommend for teen patrons of my library. Readers of this powerful graphic novel will learn about amazing women who fought passionately for what is right, stood strong in the face of adversity, and secured many of the rights we enjoy today. This book may also inspire teen readers to action knowing that, like the women who came before them, their voice is powerful and deserves to be heard. Pairs nicely with Laurie Halse Anderson’s Graphic Novel Wonder Woman Tempest Tossed. For a varied collection, I enjoyed the majority of these. The artwork from Brittney Williams and the coloring by Emma Kubert and Nicole Goux were noteworthy to me! I think it is great that the stories are not just direct translations of these admirable women’s lives (a good selection as well). The writers try to relate the stories to their own experiences, other people, and different aspects. By doing that, it makes the stories fresher in a way. 3.5 aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Not all heroes wear capes! Wonder Woman has been an inspiration for decades, and while not everyone would choose her star-spangled outfit for themselves, her compassion and fairness are worthy of emulation. This book presents tales of the real-world heroes who take up Diana's mantle and work in the fields of science, sports, activism, diplomacy, and more! New York Times bestselling author Laurie Halse Anderson brings together an all-star cast of authors and illustrators in this anthology of contemporary Wonder Women-and how they've changed our world.
