Synopsis

A hundred years ago, women didn't have the vote. When Lizzy Frost becomes involved with the fledgling Suffragette movement, it expands her horizons in ways she never could have imagined. From time spent in prison for the cause, to new relationships with fellow campaigners, Lizzy's struggle for votes for women sets her heart on fire. Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 12+

MEDIA REVIEWS

"Lizzy is a fantastic character, full of passion and wonderfully unafraid to stand up for herself and her beliefs" -- BookTrust "Linda Newbery brings the suffragette movement to life through the eyes of one vividly drawn young woman" -- LoveReading4Kids "Linda Newbery has done a great job of condensing a big issue into a small story" -- Historical Association "I like the fact that it is certainly current, but at no times did it feel like being rushed out for any centenary of the Suffragette movement. It could almost be the coming-of-age-tale for any young woman" -- The Bookbag
