"Animated and energized." -- Publishers Weekly -- "This well-conceived introduction is just right for a young audience." -- School Library Journal -- "A fine introduction for very young readers to the woman and her key role in American History." -- Kirkus -- "A must for library shelves." -- Booklist, starred review -- "Graceful tribute." -- Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton stood up and fought for what she believed in. From an early age, she knew that women were not given rights equal to men. But rather than accept her lesser status, Elizabeth went to college and later gathered other like-minded women to challenge the right to vote. This inspiring story is about an extraordinary woman who changed America forever because she wouldn't take no for an answer.
