ONE STEP FORWARD

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Chanté McCormick

Young Adult Ages 12+ • 4 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

Atkins's historical audiobook novel-in-verse shines a light on an important chapter of American history, beginning with the 1913 Women's March and ending with the 1920 ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment. Chanté McCormick gives the historical, mostly forgotten, Matilda Young a compelling voice. Matilda's voice gains confidence and strength as she grows from a shy 14-year-old, when the Women's March renewed interest in women's suffrage, to a committed worker for the cause who became the youngest suffragist to be arrested and serve jail time. McCormick's even tempo and smooth delivery make it easy to follow the extensive author's notes, including biographical information on the historical figures. Download the accompanying pdf for valuable resources, such as an extensive timeline, bibliography, and author sources. N.E.M.
