Gr 3–6— Contributions by women in a variety of fields are the subjects of these eight volumes. Among the changemakers readers are introduced to are Billboard's Woman of the Decade Taylor Swift; tennis great Serena Williams; Nicole Mann, who was the first Native American woman in space; and Maya Lin, designer of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Each woman receives a one-to-two-page overview of their respective achievements, but the information provided is limited; personal details are omitted. Diversity is a key component of these volumes and some noteworthy women who might not appear in similar works, such as Elaine Chao and Janice Bryant Howroyd, are introduced. The inclusion of lesser-known women of achievement may make these titles valuable, however that must be balanced by the lack of significant personal information. VERDICT Though readers are introduced to an array of accomplished women, the scant information means these volumes will be of limited use; selectors should consider based on need.
