"Kate Sheppard: Leading The Way For Women" is my fifth book to be published with writer Maria Gill.
This project involved a lot of research into period clothing, buildings, and general culture.
"UP UNTIL 125 YEARS AGO, there wasn’t a single country in the world that allowed women to vote in general elections.
But that was before KATE SHEPPARD. With fierce determination and unstoppable belief, Kate led the way in the women’s suffrage movement. She rallied enough support to make New Zealand the FIRST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD to give women the vote!
When Kate was young, girls didn’t get to play football and women weren’t supposed to ride bikes. They had to wear suffocating corsets and behave like ladies! Spirited Kate wanted much more than that. And she battled to get it. LEARN THE LEGACY that lives on to this day."
