In this book from the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the incredible life of Gloria Steinem, the world's most famous feminist.

Gloria realised from a young age that women were treated differently than men, and that wasn't fair. Beginning her career as a journalist, her witty and honest articles challenged readers to see the world through her eyes. Following in the footsteps of her suffragist grandmother, she became passionate about feminism and grassroots activism. There was so much work to be done, and Gloria kept working - she became a passionate leader in the women's liberation movement and dedicated her life to bringing about change. A spokesperson for an entire generation, to this day Gloria inspires us to keep working for a fairer society - for everyone.

This inspiring book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of this amazing feminist's life.
