Imagine you are Rosa, a Black child growing up in Alabama, barred by law from attending the same school as White children; Helen, a playful toddler who suddenly cannot see and hear; Anne, brought up in an almshouse who becomes Helen’s governess, and the only person able to get through to her; Florence from a wealthy family, seeking a career in nursing against the wishes of her parents. Each story, told in rhyming verse, guides you through their early upbringing towards a particularly iconic moment or time in their lives, and beyond, showing how they overcame their situation and the impact their achievements made. As one reader commented, “It’s easier to remember when read in verse.”
