rights activists.
The VIP series features stirring adventures and fun facts about
some of history's greatest trailblazers--smart, tough, persevering innovators
who will excite today's kids. Featuring underappreciated historical figures and
groups, with a focus on leaders in science, activism, and the arts, the

dive in they will zoom through stories that read like adventures.
