As a student, teacher, lawyer, and judge, Ruth often experienced unfair treatment. Some names are known, some are not, but all of the women had a lasting effect on the fields they worked in. This award-winning Big Words series brings a legendary figure into focus and this installment is about the woman, the fighter, the public servant who dedicated her life to the pursuit of equality, the trailblazer herself: the Notorious RBG, Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Readers will meet trailblazing women like Mary Blair, an American modernist painter who had a major influence on how color was used in early animated films, actor/inventor Hedy Lamarr, environmental activist Wangari Maathai, architect Zaha Hadid, filmmaker Maya Deren, and physicist Chien-Shiung Wu. Featuring the true stories of 35 women creators, ranging from writers to inventors, artists to scientists, Little Dreamers: Visionary Women Around the World inspires as it educates.
