March is Women’s History Month, and yesterday was International Women’s Day! Here are some YA books on feminism, figures who have enacted change, and strong-minded teenagers. Don’t forget to be inclusive in your empowerment! It’s important to read critically and diversely and take advantage of all the information and experience available to us. Put one (or more!) of these titles on hold for your spring break reading pleasure.
