YOUNG AND RESTLESS The Girls Who Sparked America's Revolutions

Eunice Wong perfectly delivers this powerful biography. Author Mattie Kahn has a simple goal: to bring attention to the teenage girls throughout history who have sparked protests and social justice movements. She infuses these stories with a conversational tone that matches the well-researched stories of girls we know (like climate activist Greta Thunberg) and those we don't (like education activist Fay Ordway and women's rights activist Alice de Rivera). The girls profiled were integral in fights for voting rights, abortion, climate change, racial justice, and more. This audiobook shares stories of these girls who refused to be silent, obedient, and remain on the sidelines. Their contributions are often erased, and they deserve to have their stories told. A compelling, inspiring listen. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2023]
