As I ponder a new project, I’ve been perusing a few books on my shelves. And this one hit me more than ever as relevant and important. It’s a good time to check it out and be inspired. And this is the page that hit the hardest.
Keep reading. Keep striding forward.

@kirkus_reviews has weighed in and THE PATRIOTS AND THE POX team is delighted!
“Anderson has a keen eye for US history’s lesser known stories, and she distills her account into bite size details, moving quickly through time as she imparts nuggets of historical wisdom.”
“Yazdani’s illustrations juxtapose birdseye views of soldiers marching or setting up camp with abstract images of smallpox…”

#WomensHistoryMonth may be inching toward a close, but the celebration of #women and #books continues!

Here is the first-ever picture book about female Revolutionary War activist Prudence Wright, who rallied the first and only group of "minute women" to fight the British, changing history in the process.

Prudence Wright had a spark of independence.

Annoyed when the British king held back freedoms in colonial Massachusetts, feisty and fearless Prudence had enough. She said no! to British goods, determined to rely on her resourcefulness and ingenuity to get by. And when British troops continued to threaten the lives of her family and community, she assembled and led the "minute women" of Pepperell to break free of tradition.

This untold story of a courageous and brave woman from the Revolutionary War continues to inspire today. by @bandersonwriter
