"We play for the love of the game, and we are determined to carry on." - Alice Kell, Captain of the Dick Kerr Ladies soccer team, 1921. In the 1920s there were few opportunities for women in sports, either as part of the education system in schools or in the professional realm. This book tells about the women and girls who pushed for more sports education, better equipment and access, and for recognition in professional competitions. I am not an athlete by any means, but I was inspired to see these stories of women who broke the barriers and strove for excellence in their sports. This book has stories, biographical accounts, sports stats, newspaper articles from the 1920s, quotes from famous athletes of the era, and even the stories of people who opposed women's involvement in sports. With stunning black and white photographs, this book captures the fiery spirit of these early athletes! The photographs are full of action and movement, showing the grit and steel of the women as they push and strive and conquer. I really like the writing style. It brings in the emotional element of the history, bringing you close to the women, but also keeps an unbiased style, giving the plain facts and not passing judgement on any event or person. I like this, because it allows the reader to decide for themselves what their opinion is on the history.

This adorable picture book features dozens of baby animals from familiar species like the Elephant and Rabbit, to strange species like the Long-Eared Jerboa and the Serval. The photographs of these cute little babies are colorful and sweet! There are tiny cartoon characters drawn into the corners of the pages who cheer for the babies. The text describes all the things we love about animal babies, their soft fur, their stripes, and fins. Their hooves, and paws. Their snuffles and snorts, their squawks and peeps. "Big or tiny, fast or slow" we definitely love animal babies! Photographs of the animal babies are placed in a colorful background design that is sure to capture the attention of little readers. At the back of the book there is a glossary listing the species of each baby animal, and showing what they are called. For instance, a baby elephant is called a calf. A baby dormouse is a pup. A baby rabbit is a kit. A baby angelfish is called a fry. A baby kangaroo is a joey. And a baby alpaca is a cria. This would be really fun to read with a young child and talk about each of the animals. You could ask the child to identify some of the words that come up in the text, and point out a bird beak or a snout or the ears.
