Stunningly illustrated and illuminating stories about inspiring athletes.I love any sort of book that caters to my feminist side (which, if we're being honest, is all of me?), and I also am a slight sports fan, so when I saw this book, I had to grab a copy! I've heard good things about this book's predecessor, 'Women in Science', and while I haven't read that one, I can safely say that I LOVED this book. I hope it inspires a whole new generation of girls to take up sport and succeed in it. Such care has been taken that Women in Sport is a book you'll return to over and over again.

The illustrations are bold and impactful and bright and busy and, above all, exciting. The text is clear and concise but full of interesting details. It's a gorgeous book, full of top notch production values. Women in Sport is a sensational successor to last year's Women in Science.women who trained and competed with grit are celebrated in this beautiful compendium. It's great that we're now seeing these specialised, themed women collections, and exciting that children's knowledge is being expanded to include so many strong and fearless athletes. So many women's achievements in sport have been overlooked in favour of men's over the years, so it's a great pleasure to see these 50 women celebrated in this marvellous follow up to Rachel Ignotofsky's Women in Science: 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the World.The text is engaging and factual, represented clearly and with a focus on inspiring and empowering readers.
