'feminism for teenagers'

 i got this very helpful book from my school library the other day. i've been going there a lot lately, after school with my friends. we get homework done but mostly chat.

 it's called feminism for teenagers and it's written and illustrated by sophie grillet. i haven't read a feminist book like this before. i want to read more now.

 there are different and important perspectives in the book and i really like it. it talks about men in relation to feminism though i'm still not sure if it's okay for men to be feminists (i think it should be but idk) because the book says for the purpose of this book, a feminist is a woman who has actively sought and fought for rights for women.

 there are three white girls on the cover of the book but lots of differently coloured people inside. that makes me happy (look at that smile lol) but i wish it was more obvious from the cover.

of course the suffragettes are mentioned, along with other political women and queens and stuff. like cleopatra, who has a speech bubble thing saying typical of your male-dominated age that i'm most famous for being in love with anthony and looking like elizabeth taylor, rather than for ruling egypt.
