Josephine: The Dazzling Life of Josephine Baker

Josephine Baker is truly someone to look up too. Listening to her life story was honestly humbling. I had never heard of Josephine Baker until reading this book, but I feel like she was such an amazing and brave person and someone I wish I would have known about earlier in my life. Everything that she went through and how she persevered and became such a hero is honestly breathtaking. Although the illustrations in this book were not my favorite, I feel that the book flowed exceptionally and this made up for the illustrations. This book gives a very detailed description of her life and shows how you can achieve anything that you put your mind too. What a great message and what a powerful person.
