PBS Books | April 2, 2020

“2020 marks an important year for US democracy. This year, America will celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, officially granting women the right to vote, and PBS will launch multiplatform programming focused on ‘Trailblazers’ in order to commemorate the fight for women’s suffrage in the US and the stories of modern women, who continue to shatter the glass ceiling and transform modern history. We hope your children (ages 0-12) will enjoy learning about some trailblazing women, who have made a difference throughout the world, but especially in the US.”
