What an incredible book! For one, I love purple and the vibrant purple radiating from out this book already make it gorgeous. But the story in itself of the inspiration through out the day that one little girl thrives on is incredible. Through out the day, Isabella tells her mother over again that her name is not Isabella, but that it is Sally, Annie, Rosa, Marie, Elizabeth or Mommy. Each person a great woman who changed the world. This book gives me goose bumps as for once we have a great fun book about imagination that is inspirational and more than just silly. From Sally Ride traveling into space to Annie Oakley in the west, Rosa Parks on the bus, Marie Curie in the lab, Elizabeth Blackwell as a doctor and even plain Mommy... there are great ideals for this little girl to dream about and aspire to in her future.
I love this book! I love that at the end of the day there is section in the back of the book with portraits and more information on the women of character that can influence more study when intrigued. I think this is a great book for any girl, but would be fabulous for homeschool as well as an inspiration.
Thanks to April Sirianni of Sourcebooks for providing a copy for review.
