An important read for today's world! Caitlin Donohue teaches readers about important women in politics whom everyone should know about. She writes in an informative way, yet easy to read. All voters - current and future - should pick up this book!

I love love LOVED this book! I thought each section on each politician was in depth and non-bias- which I truly appreciate. The quotes and achievements section was constructed in a way that really further proved the points it was making in the earlier sections. There was a great balance of diversity in this book with different backgrounds, political parties, sexualities, and race. This is a very important read and I would highly recommend this to anyone during this time! Also...the artwork is gorgeous! 10/10!!

This book is full of interesting mini-biographies of women in leadership positions around the world. The women included in this book all fall in different areas of the political spectrum, but each is inspirational in her own way and has had an impact on the nation in which she lives and serves. I hope the author plans to continue this series by including more women from African and Asian nations as well.
Thank you, NetGalley, for the ARC.

This book was absolutely amazing!
As a woman who is studying political science, this book was such a delight.
It's really important to connect young people and especially young women with the world of politics. The biographical format of this book makes it very easy and accessible to read.
A few of my favourite woman in this book were Angela Merkel, Jacinda Arden, Carmen Yulin Cruz Soto & Maxine Waters.
Also really loved the illustrations of all these powerful and intelligent women.
