Fats here.
Every Sunday, we share the books that have found their way into our shelves either from libraries, book shops – or simply landed into our mailboxes.
There are lots of picture books that feature fearless females. Below are just some of them. In this list I also included a couple of middle grade fiction and a few adult reads that also happen to have female characters in them! Hooray!
