Reviews

[Liliana Carrizales · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book I think would be a good book to share with kids because it shows the power that they have and should take advantage of. Since it talks about Connor and her mother eye opening to women's suffrage.

152 pages I read the book. It’s a great little book about women’s rights to vote and be counted as citizens

I read this in sixth or seventh grade for a book report, and I actually really loved it! It was probably meant for a younger audience, though.
