         <description><![CDATA[<div>Written by Deborah Underwood and Illustrated by Meg Hunt<br><br>A creative retelling of cinderella in space, this rhyming picture book has a lot to offer. The fun prose and colorful illustrations are immediately engaging. This cinderella is an excellent mechanic and when she fixes the prince's space ship, they have a long conversation about the things that interest them but are cut short and Cinderella leaves her wrench behind. In the traditional tale, the prince is searching for Cinderella because of her beauty and looking for her by searching for her dainty small feet, but in this version he is looking for someone with the skills to fix a spaceship! When he finds Cinderella, he asks for her hand in marriage but she replies that she is too young and instead becomes his head mechanic! This story beautifully illustrates that girls have more to them than their looks and that marriage doesn't have to be the ultimate goal.<br><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Interstellar-Cinderella-Deborah-Underwood/dp/1452125325/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2MHN418T42GWT&amp;keywords=interstellar+cinderella&amp;qid=1574362039&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=interstella%2Cstripbooks%2C159&amp;sr=1-1">https://www.amazon.com/Interstellar-Cinderella-Deborah-Underwood/dp/1452125325/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2MHN418T42GWT&amp;keywords=interstellar+cinderella&amp;qid=1574362039&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=interstella%2Cstripbooks%2C159&amp;sr=1-1</a></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Written by Tanya Lee Stone and Illustrated by Marjorie Priceman<br><br>This story of the first female doctor, Elizabeth Blackwell, is a powerful tale! This picture book discusses how women were not allowed to do many things or have careers in the 1830s, but Elizabeth Blackwell challenged that and graduated medical school at the top of her class. People told her she couldn't do it because women were weak and not as smart as men, but she showed that women are capable of more than what they were being allowed to do! This text is a great introduction to the history of gender inequality and is also very inspiring!<br><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Who-Says-Women-Cant-Doctors/dp/1250183391/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2YWCKYG0JAD0E&amp;keywords=who+says+women+cant+be+doctors&amp;qid=1574362015&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=who+says+women+%2Cstripbooks%2C144&amp;sr=1-1">https://www.amazon.com/Who-Says-Women-Cant-Doctors/dp/1250183391/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2YWCKYG0JAD0E&amp;keywords=who+says+women+cant+be+doctors&amp;qid=1574362015&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=who+says+women+%2Cstripbooks%2C144&amp;sr=1-1</a></div>]]></description>

His brother tells him he can't because he is a boy and tells him he'll have to wear a dress if he wants to learn ballet.

The other kids tell her it is because she is a girl and girls shouldn't play basketball, but Allie keeps trying and gets better.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>By Fiona Robinson<br><br>Ada Lovelace was a British woman with a skill for mathematics. This picture book is a short biography of her life and how she came to be considered the first computer programmer. Ada's mother raised her to follow gendered traditions - dressing up, attending balls, and becoming a wife and mother, despite her desire to become an engineer. Despite this, Ada worked with an engineer and wrote an algorithm for one of his inventions that mirrors contemporary computer programming. Despite Ada's gender, she made great accomplishments. What could she have accomplished if she were allowed to pursue her interests and find her full potential? Gender inequality played a large role in Ada's life.<br><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Adas-Ideas-Lovelace-Computer-Programmer/dp/141971872X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=TV6BX7HFTNTU&amp;keywords=adas+ideas&amp;qid=1574361990&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=adas+ide%2Cstripbooks%2C145&amp;sr=1-1">https://www.amazon.com/Adas-Ideas-Lovelace-Computer-Programmer/dp/141971872X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=TV6BX7HFTNTU&amp;keywords=adas+ideas&amp;qid=1574361990&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=adas+ide%2Cstripbooks%2C145&amp;sr=1-1</a></div>]]></description>
