There is no denying this book is incredibly informative of the Suffragette movement. Detailed and simply written, Suffragette is a fantastic read from start to finish that highlights what happened for women to get the vote, however what really makes you pay attention is the art.
This book is the perfect book for a young reader as the text is broken up by incredible illustrations of all kinds of women throughout history who have helped the cause and so many pages of this book I want hanging on my wall (the double spread of Deeds Not Words for example, I would love in a frame!). This book is also formatted in a way that makes it so easy to read that it’s hard to stop.
An incredible book that charts the history of the right to vote, it comes at the perfect time, 2018 being the 100th anniversary of the start of women voting in the UK, and it’s done beautifully here.

I loved this book with it's profiles on important women within the suffragette movement. I loved the illustrations alongside it and it made it even more accessible for younger readers. I believe this is an extremely important book for young girls to read to feel powerful!
