## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An awesome picture book biography, both educational and entertaining.
  

*by H***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2013*

There are more and more great picture book biographies being published about ordinary people who did extraordinary things.  I love it.  This is another great one to add to the list.  Elizabeth Blackwell was clearly a strong-willed person from the time she was little.  I loved the examples the author shares illustrating this, for example carrying her brother over her head until he gave in on whatever it was they fought about, and sleeping on a hard floor to 'toughen' herself up.  I also really liked the details about how she didn't set out to become a doctor, she didn't even like being around blood or sickness when she was younger.  But once the idea was planted in her mind, she persisted until she made her dream a reality, despite a tremendous amount of opposition.  I love stories like this because they are inspiring and true!  The illustrations by Marjorie Priceman are darling and match the spunky tone of the writing to a tee.  The bright colors and expressive faces add a great deal to the enjoyment of the story.  I highly recommend this as not only a great picture book biography, but just an awesome story period.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Read Aloud!!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2018*

My whole class enjoyed this book. It sparked several conversations about persistence and 'the way it was for women back in the day'. This account of Elizabeth Blackwell's journey to become the first woman doctor is inspiring and engaging! I would highly recommend this book! My fifth graders loved this book!

### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Scant information & disappointing
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2019*

This book was very disappointing. I expected more information about Elizabeth Blackwell's background & her school. The book (other than the notes at the end that are not part of the actual story) is very light on information. If my daughter had not already seen this I would return it. Also, it arrived in a thin paper envelope & had sustained water damage. Highly disappointing all the way around.
