Summary:
The spacesuit: When Ellie, an ordinary woman, is asked to lead a team of seamstresses to design the very first spacesuit, no one believes they can win, but they're determined to try! Anna Strong: The biography of Anna Strong, one of George Washington's personal spies, tells the story of a brave woman who helped change the course of American History. Brave girl: When Clara arrived in America, she didn't know that young women had to go to work and grow up fast. But that didn't stop Clara. She went to night school and helped her family by sewing in a factory. She never accepted that girls should be treated poorly with low pay, so she led the largest walkout of women workers the country had seen. She learned that everyone deserved a fair chance, to stand and fight for what she wanted, and, most importantly, that she could do anything she put her mind to. Osnat and her dove: Osnat was born five hundred years ago, at a time when almost everyone believed in miracles, but very few believed that girls should learn to read, or become rabbis. Planting stories: Follow the inspiring life of storyteller, puppeteer, and New York City's first Puerto Rican librarian Pura Belpr�e in this award-winning biography. Code breaker, spy hunter: In this biography, young viewers will learn all about Elizebeth Friedman (1892-1980), the brilliant American code breaker who created the CIA's first cryptology unit.
