While looking for her favorite shoes, Juno is transported into a magical consortium featuring the shoes of famous women. She tries on the shoes of Frida Kahlo, Sally Ride, Misty Copeland among others, until finally finding the perfect fit, taking inspiration from her magical journey.
Loved the concept. Great artwork. A fun way to celebrate powerful women throughout history.
I loved the variety of women covered in the book. There are athletes, artists, musicians, activists, scientists, and more. Nice mix of contemporary and historical figures. At the back is a short guide to the women covered in the book and some of the things they were known for.
Works especially well for kids who like fashion and dress-up.
