Biographie de l'auteur

Bryna J. Fireside has been a teacher, writer and social activist all her adult life. "I've always been fascinated by women who are 'trouble-makers' who aren't afraid to fight injustice when they encounter it. I hope the 10 pioneering lawmakers will inspire young readers to become activists and change the world."
