"Princess Sophia Duleep Singh was a truly remarkable person and Bali Rai brings her wonderfully to life in this short, but action-packed biography . Everyone should know her story and I'd press this into the hands of all young people to inspire them with the sense that you can make a difference to the world, and to let them see through the eyes of this extraordinary woman" - LoveReading4Kids "Fascinating . highlights a troubling period of British history in an accessible manner" - BookTrust, Book of the Day "Takes a complex story and distils it down to the essentials while keeping the narrative clear, accessible and engaging at all times. I can see this being a tremendous hit with teachers looking for resources to use in the classroom that raise a wide range of pressing social issues because it tells its story provocatively but without being tediously didactic. Highly recommended" - The Letterpress Project "So simply done and yet packs an almighty emotional punch . a wonderful addition to any classroom that is investigating the history of the suffragette movement and the history of Empire. This is a fantastic story about a woman who defied authority and achieved incredible things. It's a wonderful achievement" - The Historian Next Door.
