ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- A bright look at some of the women who have made their mark upon the world (and not just the Europeans!) Starts at Sappho, and ends with Marta (who I didn't know, but as she plays soccer, I'm afraid I wouldn't!) Arranged in groups of creatives, scientists, campaigners, leaders and sports, with plenty of illustrations. Small paragraphs and facts, including a summarising of their impact and the context of their achievements, rather than scads of text, so this is good for young-to-middle primary ages. Lindy Jones

-----
