A long time ago, in Ancient Greece, when women couldnt
even leave the house, a girl named Artemisia led war ships
to battle. When other women would knit and cook, Artemisia
would sink enemyships and call out orders to male
soldiers. When women werent even considered citizens,
Artemisia was the only person the Emperor trusted. Learn
about her food, clothing, and life in Artemisia of Caria.
This book will make girls and women around the world more
powerful than ever.

Opinion: 

This book was really entertaining. Its always bothered me
that a long time ago women were treated badly. This book
really shows how women can be just as good(or maybe better)
than men. I love how the author didnt just teach me about
Artemisia, but also about some Ancient Greek customs. I
was  really pulled into the story when the author
described the wars Artemisia was in and all the scary
things that happened to her. Now, after reading that book,
my life motto is Fight like a girl. I would recommend
this book to all girls who are tired of hearing boys say
they are better than them.
