SHE PERSISTED: 13 AMERICAN WOMEN WHO CHANGED THE WORLD

by | Read by Nikki M. James

Children Ages 6+ • 12 mins. • Unabridged • © 2017

Ushered into story time by a melodic piano piece, young listeners soon encounter narrator Nikki M. James, whose voice takes on charming, strong, and informational tones throughout the audiobook. With each page, James introduces a new historical figure, highlighting each woman's perseverance in a brief paragraph followed by a well-known quote. In addition to James's narration, children will enjoy other audio additions such as the uplifting piano score that plays from beginning to end and page-specific noises like the chirping crickets that accompany Harriet Tubman as she leads slaves to freedom. This expertly narrated audiobook allows two listening options--with or without page prompts--as well as a recorded interview with author Chelsea Clinton.
