It's Women's History Month and time to find some good reading material for the kids. I have only read the first two below, but the others are on my list.
Lives of Extraordinary Women: Rulers, Rebels (and What the Neighbors Thought) (Author) Kathleen Krull
Lives of Extraordinary Women has short intervals describing the accomplishments and vices of top women throughout history. From Cleopatra to Aung San Sun Kyi, there is a lot to learn from strong women leaders of the past. Their stories are not perfect, but do highlight the power that some of these women were able to wield and maintain. Although some of the details are inappropriate for young kids, I am adapting for bedtime stories for this month.
