“Suffragist and abolitionist Lucy Stone, a pioneer in the 19th century’s two greatest movements for equality, finds her voice in this engaging picture book for budding activists. Vivian Kirkfield’s passionate text and Rebecca Gibbon’s playful illustrations combine to encourage readers to find their own voices to speak up for what they believe in!”—A Mighty Girl

“In this picture book biography about abolitionist and suffragist Lucy Stone, young readers will be introduced to this activist who started as a child advocating for girls’ education and worked the rest of her life on civil rights for all… The distinctive acrylic and colored pencil illustrations have a lively style similar to political cartoons, clearly depicting the 19th century clothing and setting.”—Bayviews, The Association of Children’s Librarians of Northern California
