Strong females smack of the unfeminine. They have been called wicked, wanton, and willful. Sometimes that is a just designation, but just as often it is not. "Well- behaved women seldom make history," is the frequently quoted statement by historian and feminist Laurel Thatcher Ulrich. But what makes these misbehaving women "bad"' Are we idolizing the wicked or salvaging the strong'In BAD GIRLS, readers meet twenty-six of history's most notorious women, each with a rotten reputation. But authors Jane Yolen and Heidi Stemple remind us that there are two sides to every story. Was Delilah a harlot or hero' Was Catherine the Great a great ruler, or just plain ruthless' At the end of each chapter, Yolen and Stemple appear as themselves in comic panels as they debate each girl's badness'Heidi as the prosecution, Jane for context. This unique and sassy examination of famed, female historical figures will engage readers with its unusual presentation of the subject matter. Heidi and Jane's strong arguments for the innocence and guilt of each bad girl promotes the practice of critical thinking as well as the idea that history is subjective. Rebecca Guay's detailed illustrations provide a rich, stylized portrait of each woman, while the inclusion of comic panels will resonate with fans of graphic novels. 520 An introduction to more than two dozen of history's most notorious women shares the stories of such figures as Tituba, Lizzie Borden, and Cleopatra, and allows the readers to draw their own conclusions about each woman's guilt. 521 0 800|bLexile. 521 8 800L|bLexile 526 0 Accelerated Reader AR|bMG|c5.4|d3|z156827 526 0 Accelerated Reader|bMG|c5.4|d3|z156827 538 Requires Boundless App. 588 Description based on print version record. 650 0 Female offenders|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Femmes fatales|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Women murderers|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 1 Female offenders. 650 1 Femmes fatales. 650 1 Women murderers. 650 1 Women|vBiography. 650 7 Female offenders.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00922629 650 7 Femmes fatales.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00922841 650 7 Women murderers.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01178169 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 Juvenile works.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411637 700 1 Stemple, Heidi E.
