| This book received a starred review in Booklist. It is a 32-page picture book about the first woman to swim the English Channel. On the very day of her swim there was a story in the London Daily News declaring she would never make the swim and that "Women should know they are forever the weaker sex." She not only completed the swim, but beat the men's record by almost two hours. This is an inspiring story of courage.
| This is a 32-page picture book about the brave Native American scout for the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
