Bookroo's summary
Dive into the inspiring tales of Canadian women like Marilyn Bell, who swam Lake Ontario at sixteen, and Alanis Morissette, who topped music charts at twenty-one. These stories challenge perceptions and celebrate groundbreaking achievements, urging young girls to carve their own paths and redefine possibilities. What other incredible feats await discovery?
From the publisher
When she was just sixteen years old, Marilyn Bell stepped into the icy waters of Lake Ontario and became the first woman in history to swim it. She then went on to become the youngest person ever to swim the English Channel. Her achievements changed the world’s ideas about women’s athletic abilities and endurance. Grammy-award winning singer Alanis Morissette had the top-selling album in history by a female singer at the age of 21. And these are just two of the Canadian girls who rocked the world.
