This Biography would make for a great RA in the classroom. This inspirational story can teach students about women‘s rights. This book has so much history woven into the each page! Teachers can use this story as a read aloud when teaching various social studies lessons. You HAVE to read it! I would suggest UDL principle 2.1(clarify vocabulary and symbols) & ESOL strategy 5(check frequently for understanding)

#JumpIntoJanuary Day 5: #NationalBirdDay reminded me of this PBB of Malala. The deceptively-simple drawings, clean lines, and the splash of colours are also quite easy on the eye, as well as the text that is sparse yet powerful. This is one title that you should definitely add to your gallery of Malala‘s PBBs. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-hYc

#LetsTravelAugust Day 2: Fats‘ review: “Some of the notable things about Belva Lockwood that were mentioned in the book:
1. Belva enrolled herself in math, science, and politics in a university despite her father‘s disapproval. He believed that #college was only for men. Belva graduated with honors.
2. With the help of Susan B. Anthony, Belva pushed for schools in New York to teach public speaking to boys and girls.

“ Gloria Steinem‘s career-spanning collection of essays—each one a book in itself—re-imagine everything from the masculinization of wealth to Freudian thought and aging. With cool humor and rich intellect, #GloriaSteinem strips bare our social constructions of gender and race, explaining just how limiting these invented cultural identities can be...” #TBR | #Feminist | #Feminism | #EqualRights | Day 11: #TitleStartswithM - #AprilBookishMadness

Saudi Arabia. The only country in the world where women aren't allowed to drive. Where there is no public transport so women must rely on their partners and male family to chauffeur them, if they are granted permission in the first place. Where domestic abuse is illegal but in order to go to the police station their husband is the man they would need to ask permission from to take her there.
