50 Book Titles About Women in History for All Ages
In honor of Women's History Month, I made a diverse and multicultural book list of 50 book titles about women in history for all ages, which includes picture books, chapter books, young adult books, and adult books. The compilations are mostly suitable for children in elementary and middle school. I hope that you continue reading about women in history throughout the whole year.
