How do you celebrate Women’s History Month in the library? There are many wonderful books about accomplished women. Sometimes the best way to introduce a topic, even to older students, is to read a book about it. Picture book biographies have become very popular in recent years. The “Who Was” series, in the form of chapter books, is appropriate for slightly older kids. Try to go beyond the typical women, such as Amelia Earhart and read about Shark Lady Eugenie Clark, Katherine Johnson of NASA’s hidden figures fame, activist Malala Yousafzai or physicist Wu Chien Shiung.<\/p>\n\n\n
