A gorgeously packaged anthology is our bestselling children’s book of last week. Shout Out to the Girls features mini-biographies of remarkable Australian women coupled with illustrations from 50 Australian women artists.
Our reviewer writes: ‘The book encourages gratitude to women – promoting a sense of positivity – by casting a spotlight on those who have contributed to the enrichment of our social fabric, many of whom bravely and singularly championed causes to achieve history-making ‘firsts’ before going on to gain mainstream acceptance.’ Read the full review here.
