Details
Women have been doing amazing, daring, and dangerous things for years, but they're rarely mentioned in our history books as adventurers, daredevils, or rebels. This new compilation of brief biographies features women throughout history who have risked their lives for adventure-many of whom you may not know, but all of whom you'll WANT to know.
Includes profiles of Annie Edson Taylor, the first person who dared to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel, Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman who dared to fly in space, Helen Gibson, the first woman who dared to be a professional stunt person - and many more!
Hardcover, 128 pages. Measures 7" in x 9" inches. A great gift for kids 9-12!
Inspired by the exhibition Anita Kunz: Original Sisters: Portraits of Tenacity and Courage on view November 9, 2024 through May 26, 2025 at Norman Rockwell Museum.
