These biographies each have a mix of first person responses to questions and third person biographies along with one main illustration of the women and mini illustrations along the way. Each biography is around eight pages long.
This is a very powerful exploration of women in power. The anthology is interesting and inspiring. I love that the illustrations of the woman show openness but the women aren’t all smiling and cheery, as women are often asked to be.
