REVOLUTIONARY WOMEN is a celebration of women of color, centering women who have historically been sidelined. For fans of Ann Shen' s beloved BAD GIRLS THROUGHOUT HISTORY, this spiritual successor celebrates the accomplishments of these incredible women alongside Ann' s signature artwork.

They include:Gloria Estefan, one of the best-selling female music artists of all time. Anna Sui, an iconic fashion designer for over four decades. Bessie Stringfield, the motorcycle queen of Miami. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the youngest woman ever sworn into Congress. Misty Copeland, the first Black woman principal dancer at American Ballet Theater. Joyce Chen, the first Chinese celebrity chef. REVOLUTIONARY WOMEN captures their extraordinary stories in a beautiful and inspiring format that elevates their achievements. Readers will love the new take on Ann' s beloved first book, as well as the uplifting stories, beautiful and rich art, and the inspiration for readers to forge their own paths.
