Women Warriors: Myths and Legends of Heroic Women

80 pp. | Morrow | September, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-688-15522-7 $$18.00
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Julek Heller. From the British warrior-queen Boadicea to the Japanese heroine Yakami, who killed a sea monster, these stories feature twelve spirited, battle-strong women from around the world. Each overly dramatic account is accompanied by a brief introduction, a somewhat drab full-page watercolor painting, and a spot illustration. For basic information on these heroic women, this is a suitable collection. Bib., ind.
