About this Event
Stand back, the girls are coming through: Learn about forty amazing Asian American women who have changed the course of history!
From the big stage to the US Navy, from laboratories to the boardroom, from the Olympics to the pages in books, these girls and women lead every line. Bold, bright, and empowering profiles by Geisel Honor–winning and #1 New York Times bestselling artist Niña Mata place these incredible changemakers at the very front and inspire readers to tap into their own greatness.
About the Author:
Niña Mata is an illustrator and sometimes writer who has created many books for kids including the #1 New York Times Bestseller I Promise by LeBron James. She is also the illustrator of the Theodor Seuss Geisel Honored series “Ty’s Travels” by the incomparable Kelly Starling Lyons.
