"Macy's riveting narrative is a pleasant balance of storytelling and factual information. Collins brings the story to life with his stunning double-page scenes and mixed-media illustrations"-- Booklist "Macy's immediate, involving text takes breaks only to supply essential backstory . Collins's retro-flavored mixed-media art has a you-are-there, camera-like perspective, zooming in at key points along the way;"-- The Horn Book "The dramatic, full-bleed illustrations combine with the evocative text to humanize the event and the heroine. A valuable addition to picture-book biographies of women who made waves in history."-- Kirkus Reviews.
