Told in first person, "SUPERWOMEN" shares the lives of four dynamic African American women. In this book written primarily for students in grades 1st through 2nd, the reader is briefly informed of the lives and accomplishments of Wilma Rudolph, Billie Holiday, Mary McLeod Bethune and Madame C.J. Walker. Each woman's story is different, yet quite similar; all four women reflect upon their decisions to stick to their goals and to never give up on their dreams. An encouraging read for students in school as well as at home. Enjoy!
