- It's not so much that I don't like it, it's that the 13 year old I gave it to didn't. She's on a national volley ball team and I thought it would be perfect, but 13-year-olds - well - lack tact.
- I bought this for my sister's baby shower, hoping for something a bit more interesting for her to read during late night (anything other than Goodnight Moon for the millionth time, right?). The illustrations were gorgeous and the sections on each athlete are 1-2 pages long. There were many current athletes featured (Serena Williams & Simone Biles) as well as historical athletes like Babe Zaharias. I will definitely be purchasing the Women in Science edition as well!

- I bought for my daughter who recently began swim team. She loves hearing me read the stories. She then goes back to read the fun facts in the page margins -- and ends up reading more stories on her own! Each story is great for teaching girls about having goals and the rewards of persevering in the face of adversity and personal challenges.
- I have not personally looked through this book much but my 8 year old niece loved the similar Women in Science book I previously got her and she loved this one too. I wasn't sure she'd like it but I hear she spouts off facts from both of these books regularly.
- Hands down an amazing and perfect book. My kids love it and I enjoy reading it too so much that I gifted copies to all our closest friends with kids and I even donated one to my sons classroom because he always wanted to take it and share it. You don't realize just how many great and varied female athletes there has been over time until you see a healthy selection here in one book...so many women have been breaking barriers even still today!
- My daughter LOVES this book. It has given her inspiration to try new sports and has helped her learn about some amazing women and their achievements.
- Bought this as a gift for my 10 year old cousin who is really into sports and female empowerment. I wanted to show her all the great examples of female athletes without being boring. This book does that perfectly. with beautiful illustrations and a short biography.
