I enjoyed this kid friendly biography of Gloria Steinem. As a mom to a little girl I want to teach her about strong women in history. This book does just that! It's written in a way that any child could follow the information and digest it. The illustrations are fun and colorful. Overall I really liked the book and look forward to adding it to my daughters library.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC.

This is a wonderful feminist addition to this ever expanding and growing series. It was so great to see the beginnings of her journey into feminism included. This is a perfect inspirational book for young girls and boys.

I am a huge fan of Gloria Steinem - such an amazing woman who dedicated her life to public service. Especially the service of furthering women and their rights.
This is a great introduction to her life - her family background, inspiration to take on the plight of women's rights - or lack of, as her calling.
Gloria became a journalist - experienced sexism in the work place. But that wasn't enough for Gloria - she went out and experienced sexual harassment as a server in a male club. Her strength allowed her to build a magazine focusing on women - and it was successful.
Gloria pushed the women's agenda - in society, in politics, in life. This is a great overview.

My gratitude to Netgalley, Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara and the publisher for providing me an e-copy of this book in exchange of honest opinion.

It might sound crazy but I had no idea who Gloria Steinem is. Pathetic right? I'm glad to have read this book as it masterfully summarizes her life and the areas of her contribution in simple, attractive language. Gloria constantly travelled from one place to another in a trailer with her family until she was 10 which is when her parents divorced and she settled with her mom. Then we move on to the turning points of Gloria's life, her journalism career, using journalism as a medium to protest against sexism, how she turned into one of the most highlighted, accomplished feminist leaders. She co-founded the National Women's Political Caucus, Ms. magazine, Women's Action Alliance, Women's Media Center and created 'Take Our Daughters to Work Day' to help young girls understand future job opportunities better. I am in awe of this incredible, energetic woman! The illustrations were beautiful and well-done. As I was a stranger to her activities, I didn't understand what 'spending 10 days as a bunny' meant. I know now, ha ha. Overall, a great read.

Received from NetGalley for review.

Gloria Steinem was an inspiration to women fighting for their rights and freedoms. I loved this short book that doesn’t have to be just for kids. I got the cliff notes version of her story and it inspires us adults to educate ourselves more.

Adding this to my future library collection!

'Gloria Steinem' by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara with illustrations by Lucila Perini is another entry in the Little People, BIG DREAMS series.

Gloria Steinem grew up in Ohio with an older sister. Her family travelled around in a trailer and she learned that people were equal, no matter what their gender was, but found that the world didn't think the same way. She was inspired by the women in her life who came before her to become a reporter.

As ever, this series never fails to impress. The art choices almost always seem to be spot on for the prose and that goes for this title as well.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Children's Books, and NetGalley. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

Okay first off- SUPER cute. Cute illustrations, simple pages for id day age 4-9 to understand. Fairly cheeky- (she researched as a “bunny”). I found this book to be one we will add to our historical figure shelves. As a homeschool mama that doesn’t like sugarcoating history- I appreciated this one a lot.
