Gr 6-10-These books illuminate the lives of their extraordinary subjects and the important roles they played in history. Meir survived pogroms in Russia as a child and became prime minister of Israel. Readers learn about Bhutto's student years at Radcliffe College and her rise to prime minister of Pakistan, the first woman to lead a Muslim state.
Chisholm, who grew up in Brooklyn, NY, was the first black woman elected to Congress, and she also ran for the Democratic presidential nomination. The story of Mankiller's lifelong work for the Cherokee Nation and her role as its first female principal chief will absorb readers. The women's lives are revealed within the political and historical context of their times and include quotes from autobiographical material. Sidebars describe important events such as the Civil Rights Movement (Chisholm), and color and black-and-white photos are included in each volume. The books close with a summation of the lasting impact of the subjects' political careers. The compact size, chronological organization, and accessible writing styles make these biographies good resources for reports.-Ragan O'Malley, Saint Ann's School, Brooklyn, NY © Copyright 2010.
